On June 13th, 2020 Our Governor; Andrew Cuomo gave his address stating that the communities of each city and county need to come together to create their own ideas and legislation for our own Police Force. One made BY the community FOR the community Welcome to Good NeighborsGood Night! This organization will be building itself alongside the community of Buffalo and all its beautifully diverse people to help create OUR version of Legislation for the New Model of Law Enforcemen...t in America. Although this Organization has its own ideas that will be shared for public view, the main point is forming a overarching idea of what OUR CITY wants! So I need YOUR INPUT! Good Neighbors is a bond that we create. The Good Night is the one that WE make SAFE. Our communities have one thing in common: everything we do in the Buffalo, New York mindset is for the love of those in our lives and for the love of ourselves! This mindset has always made us into a home of diversity. It's a friendliness that melts the coldest of storms. THAT LOVE IS WHO WE ARE. The reality being if we don't have one in place that we wish to put forward by April 1st, 2021 then we will not he given State Funding for ANY POLICE FORCE. In Cuomo's words April 1st is the "Drop Dead Date" at which point Counties and Cities within them that have not created a new policy and enforcement group to enact them WILL LOSE FUNDING TO THAT SECTOR. Being a a city commonly known as "The City of Good Neighbors" we have a long history of race based violence and discrimination, police brutality, and silencing of people victimized by many crimes of varying size. Which all boils down to a society that functions in secrecy. A system of polite racism that has been engraved into our interactions with one another. We have one of the LARGEST immigrant populations in the state next to NYC, and yet we still have such a large amount of segregation in our neighborhoods just as we do in our Nation; and the protests and riots we witnessed these past 2 weeks Globally have spoken to these injustices and the time is OURS to enact that change. Also we have a HUGE REVENUE WE MAKE OFF BARS. So we NEED a form of law enforcement. Let's face it-- we love our family, we love our friends, and we LOVVVVE to have a good time here! So let's protect each other and love the fun we create! Stick around and let's make our city what it was always meant to be! Much love, and much Bleu Cheese El C. -Buffalo Born ACAB
