Today I am off (Happy July 4th btw everyone!) and spent part of my day online. One disturbing thing I read is of a recent confrontation between a black man (thankfully the whole thing was videoed on smartphone just like the recent event in Phoenix was) and a police officer in Boulder, Colorado, clearly proving the police officer wrong and breaking the law.....
Then I had an idea and I thought I'd run it by here as you'all are familiar with what a big deal such events are for me. My idea is this - to start a website similar to Talk Show Soup - a show years ago that had bits and segments of all the day's funky events on talk shows. In my case, the website would cover police brutality issues nationwide - and would stick with cases to the bitter end, highlighting settlements, firings, resignations, consequences of any kind.
This is totally right up my alley but if it's such a great idea, I wonder why it has not already been done? What do you'all think? I could see something like this lending my life significant meaning, and it might be some kind of legacy I can leave behind that would put a teensy little bit of good into a very crazy world.
