Obama Makes TERRIFYING Move In Effort To Control Local Police Departments

Barack Obama is making an aggressive move to control our local police departments… it’s called the Police Data Initiative and it should worry the crap out of all of us. It ties police into technology and databases that are at the whim of the White House and Barack Obamam. It also makes them uber accountable to those calling the shots. Many see this as a move to nationalize our police forces and I’m one of them. When this first came on the scene, 21 police departments were partners. Now, it’s 53. Here is the current list – notice almost all of these are in Progressively-controlled cities:

Albuquerque, NM
Atlanta, GA
Austin, TX
Baltimore PD
Bedford, VA
Bloomington, IN
Burlington, VT
Camden County, NJ
Charlotte-Mecklenburg, NC

Barack Obama

From the Conservative Tribune:

Those in power crave more power — which is the reason why the federal government has grown to the unbelievably bloated size it is today. The Police Data Initiative, a plan by President Barack Obama to make law enforcement more technology-driven and accountable to higher-ups, will only continue to expand the power and overreach of our federal government.

Most critics of this initiative don’t like the thought of our local police departments handing over some of their responsibilities to federal jurisdiction.

When this was first proposed last May, only 21 police departments were partners. However, it’s grown since. Now, the number of participating departments has jumped to 53, according to WND. So, at the rate police departments have been jumping onboard this eerie program, your local station could very well be next — if it hasn’t already.

A press release from the White House last year stated: “Through the initiative, key stakeholders are establishing a community of practice that will allow for knowledge sharing, community-sourced problem solving and the establishment of documented best practices that can serve as examples for police departments nationwide.” All the data collected in this initiative is feeding a monstrous database that can be used against every one of us. They say it will be used to stop discrimination, but in the end, it will be the ultimate weapon to use against those that aren’t PC enough. This whole move was meant to appease the Black Lives Matter movement. It will be massively expensive, invasive and ineffective, not to mention intrusive and abusive. Critics say it’s little more than a federalization of local police because it puts the White House at the helm of deciding such matters as cameras on cop uniforms and whether or not local jurisdictions accept equipment from the military. As the New American put it back in March of 2015: “The plan … will use U.S. taxpayer dollars to deploy ‘experts’ and ‘researchers’ charged with training officers to act in a manner that the [Department of Justice] deems just – in essence doing the bidding of the Obama administration. Officially, the Justice Department will be helping local officials ‘fight crime’ under the scheme.” And as the Blaze reported in August of 2015: “President Barack Obama’s administration has begun the second phase in federalizing the police.” I warned this was coming a year ago and here we are.
