As long as police shootings and other abuses are resolved with findings that the officer involved performed as trained, then the place to start with review and modernization of training is at the top, the Chief. 

And we cannot expect to get a chief who will train officers to understand that perceived lethal or other threats may be due to cultural differences, lack of understanding of mental illness or intellectual disabilities, etc., if that person does not also understand that themselves.

Are white males (like myself) incapable of choosing candidates for Commission review. Of course not! But there are ample, qualified persons of other genders and ethnicities and including them would have given confidence in the process to the non-white, non-male people who are the majority of our community 

Just sayin.
