Certainly not on the taxpayer dime.
We can and should, but through the prison system. I don't see why we can't help people become better citizens instead of better criminals if we're locking them up and paying for it anyway.
You’re right. I should have worded my response better. I meant if he is walking around free, he should be responsible for it, not the tax payer (unless that’s a tax-funded service that is available for everyone). If he’s incarcerated we not only have opportunity, we have a duty to try.
McClain was unarmed when he was stopped Aug. 24, 2019, by officers responding to a report of a suspicious person wearing a ski mask and waving his arms. He was carrying a plastic bag with three cans of iced tea in his left hand and his phone in his right hand. He was listening to music on headphones and didn’t initially respond when officers called to him.
Another case of being killed for being black.

This one has been breaking my heart since it happened. Don't read the transcript or listen to the audio unless you want to be sad all day.
