Query thread about police staffing levels: #a2council #A2policeoversight **Could any of @EatonForMayor's supporters [or the man himself], explain to me and others how his "proactive policing" model will make Black and Latinx residents safer?**

[I should note, the police oversight commission is meant to create a safer living environment for Black and Latinx, and poor people/ ppl with mental health challenges, who are disproportionally targets of police action in A2] #a2council #A2policeoversight

*Because the folks I talk to who identify as Latinx and Black, want fewer interactions with police, not more.*

*Additionally, what is the justification for growing the police department when crime trends, esp violent crimes are trending downward?* #a2council #A2policeoversight

Attached picture is from Eaton's website. You can go to it yourself by going to his "our priorities" then "police fire and safety."
I look forward to your responses. #a2council #A2policeoversight
