matt’s clearly talking about the topic of police interactions where their judgement is impaired by policy and training. They literally can’t change when they don’t see anything wrong.

I know exactly what he's talking about

Here's 7 days worth of reported crime in Oakland.

Then talk about the reform efforts rather than listing off crimes.
There's only one reform. Only one thing that you can actually "do." Vote. Then keep voting. Whoa, look, we got Clinton, we have the lowest unemployment in half a century, we eliminated the deficit (yayyy), things are coming around (yayyy), and then vote for Ralph Nader and destroy our progress for 8 years.

Vote. That's the sum total of reform.

Georgia adds hurdles? Jump over them.

Clinton's crime bill represented progress? By adopting conservative ideas and thus co-opting their talking points while pulling Dems to the right, didn't Clinton end up driving them further right and into the arms of the Tea Party caucus?

Blaming Gore's loss on anything more than Clinton's lack of zipper control is at best fanciful.

On both sides, party adherents have a penchant for rewriting history to fit their own narratives.
