The Ban of Minor Vehicle Stops

The ban of traffic stops can put a stop to officers abusing authority and targeting people of color or of a “certain demographic.” Sandra Bland was pulled over for failing to signal during a lane change and after an argument with the officer, she was arrested. Sandra Bland later died in the cell. Traffic stops unfortunately for people of color is a traumatic experience and can result in death like Jenoah Donald and so many others. I don’t believe that traffic stops are solely for safety of the community. It does more harm than good.

Situational Crime Prevention

In my building, there are cameras on every level. It is to ensure there is security and visibility everywhere.
My neighbors have a ring camera so that way they can see any movement in front of their door which is helpful incase someone steals a package, leave a note, etc.
