? ? ?Hi Donna, Thanks so much for your kind comments. The Palo Alto City Council intends to have a study session on community policing on Monday Feb 24, 2020 from 5-6pm. If things run according to script it will be all about policing and next to zero about community. The unfailingly polite police chief..Robert Jonsen.. will be allowed to filibuster for the bulk of the study session ..with rare interruption by one of the seven city council members. Each member will upon the perceived risk of political and professional death... ask the softest of softball questions with the obligation preface about how deeply they respect the police chief and his hard working department. In this case the study session is simply a PR stunt designed to detract the community, press... and city council from an ongoing cover-up of the Captain Zack Perron scandal https://www.mercurynews.com/2019/05/22/palo-alto-police-captain-under-fire-over-racial-comment-to-black-officer/amp/ Sent from my iPhone Given a recent city council meeting December 16, 2019 re the PAPD police scandal involving Captain Zack Perron —alleged to have called Sent from my iPhone On Feb 18, 2020, at 4:33 PM, Donna Wallach ? Hi Aram, So very true, especially about the general public not knowing their rights. Cops don't like it when people know their rights & stand up for them. Especially Black & Brown people. But it is super important for all of us to know our rights & to teach others. You have always been a role model in doing that Aram!

At the time...The Recorder was the 2nd largest daily legal newspaper in California . Maybe its time for me to do another mobile soap box.
