    2 million? That’s very little considering the horror those families went through specially the children.

    This wasn't a traffic stop where an officer makes a judgement call on their own. In situations like this, most departments work like the military, they take orders from their chain of command, and it's not individual freedom to do what you want. Some were cowards on camera & hid as we saw, but most were following orders. You can't fire them all for that. The leaders who were making the fatallly flawed decisions need identified & held accountable.

    Humanity has been lost theres a bond with everyone who was lost that day, and "moving on" isnt possible. I understand why these parents continue to fight. Those officers failed and there hasnt been any accountability. They wont forget this easily and we must stand with their pain and their goals to make their community better.
