Andrew Gillum: When police reach for a weapon, they’ve already had to go too far

I don’t like him, particularly his habit of using race to deflect from legitimate questions about his ethical behavior, but this smells to me more like a banal point that came out awkwardly than some batty suggestion that any use of a weapon by a cop is illegitimate. Not even progressives believe that.
I think? Ideological orthodoxy changes quickly in politics nowadays, and they’re pretty far gone on some subjects. One night a few months ago I went to sleep and when I woke up “abolish ICE†was their talking point du jour.
If we haven’t yet arrived at the Democratic belief that all force used by cops amounts to police brutality, give ’em time.
