Tonight- The news of a young, unarmed, black man shot to death by a white officer in Ferguson, Missouri, and the ensuing protests by the community and the reaction of various law enforcement agencies, has dominated national news, as of late. How does the situation in Ferguson relate to “The War On Drugs” and what kind of reform measures may be needed to avoid similar situations in the future?
Returning to PGT -Sheriff W.L. Federspiel the Sheriff of Saginaw County, recently in the national news concerning his department receiving and then returning a military tank. Similar gifting of military equipment is taking place across the country, (SEE FERGUSON-ET AL), but no other Sheriff’s are returning the equipment. In fact the Oakland County Sherrif’s department was gifted a grenade launcher.
