Summary

Collier and Brenda welcome attorney and author David Robinson, Esq. to the program to share his thoughts on the current state of policing in the United States. With over 30 years of experience in law enforcement and on both sides of the infamous "Blue Line," David's unique perspective elevates the current debate of Power VS Authority and how much is too much. We explore how the curing of "the symptoms" does not cure "the disease", but rather further escalates the current crash course between the civilian population and those in uniform trying to keep the streets safe. Collier notes how the current situation seems to go far beyond race and/or gender but rather comes down to one simple scenario: those who seek to maintain power versus those who seek to attain it.
