Lawyer: Obama Right to Stop Flow of Military Gear to Police
One supporter of President Barack Obama's decision to abolish the federal government's practice of providing old military equipment to law enforcement agencies tells Newsmax TV that the move is a "step in the right direction," adding that overly aggressive police tactics are rooted in their training.
During an appearance on "The Hard Line" with Ed Berliner on Monday, constitutional lawyer John Whitehead said stopping the practice would not end police shootings involving unarmed suspects but would certainly help.
