NAACP TO ADDRESS POLICE OVERSIGHT AND ACCOUNTABILITY AT TOWN HALL MEETING

Salisbury, MD… The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP), Wicomico County Branch will host its Town Hall meeting on Thursday, July 31st at 7:00 P.M. This meeting will be held at Chipman Cultural Center, 325 Broad Street, Salisbury, MD.

The two purposes of this meeting are: (1) to engage citizens in developing sustaining strategies to address charges of police misconduct and (2) how to build sustaining police and citizens’ relationship.

Since July 1998, WCNAACP has worked with law enforcement agencies to bridge the gap between residents and law enforcement agencies. There has been some improvement with top level such as chiefs of police, sheriff and states attorney. However, grassroots people are complaining that our efforts are not affecting the officers and / or deputies that interact directly with citizens.

Therefore, in the future, we will request to meet with and have dialogue with the “foot soldiers” that interact daily with citizens in an effort to hear the officers, deputies and MD State Police and share the concerns from the citizenry. However, at this time, no one from the law enforcement agencies will be invited to this meeting.

For additional information about this meeting, contact Mary Ashanti, President, at 410-543-4187.

The public is invited to attend this meeting.

Naacp is a total waste of time energy and money......they do nothing but stir a boiling pot and look like fools doing it. Its always what we can do for them not what they dont choose to do for themselves then they cry and complain that the man brings them down....dont make me laugh!!!!!

Agree with 5:56. Nothing like ignoring the real problem which is black children growing up with no positive parental role models in their lives. Yeah let's just ignore that fact NAACP!
Let's try to blame the mess the black race is in on everything else including the police. It's a mess because personal responsibility if a foreign concept to these people. Not only uncivilized but never grew up and still act like children playing the blame game. It's no wonder blacks are killing each other in record numbers. They are spoon fed nothing but lies their entire lives even by a group like the NAACP that in their own minds think they are legitimate. If they were, the black communities would be models of excellence. But they aren't. They are cess pools of crime and poverty, and the responsibility falls exclusively on the backs of the nothings in the NAACP.

It is amazing just how many comments I have rejected on this Post.

Can't you people make your point WITHOUT making it a racial thing?

So you disagree with the NAACP, fine. Say so with some class or know your comment will be rejected. This is NOT an ANONYMOUS place where you can wear a white sheet and hat and attack ANY race.

Now, if you WUSSIES want to make such statements, show up at this NAACP gathering and express your opinions.

In the mean time, know that the comments I am rejecting PROVES you are far more of a problem and RACIST than those people putting people together to address an issue that is important to THEM.

If you also want to make a difference, MOST of the CRIME lately are younger WHITE people addicted to heroin. Ask Lewis and Maciarello.

Joe,
I dont care what Lewis or SAO is telling you, with all do respect. Yes, heroin use is on the rise, but i still take more reports with black suspects then white suspects.

At a ratio of 8 out of 10? I'm no cop but I love listening to the scanners.

No, Joe, there are TWO groups - young white heroin addicts and black juveniles. Both are robbing.
