Here's what I learned as a mayor and a governor. The way you make communities safer and the way you make police safer is through community policing. You build the bonds between the community and the police force, build bonds of understanding, and then when people feel comfortable in their communities, that gap between the police and the communities they serve narrows. And when that gap narrows, it's safer for the communities and it's safer for the police.

Tim Kaine

Building trust between the community and police department is crucial. It makes the department stronger and our neighborhoods safer.

Kevin Faulconer

You build the bonds through the community and police force, build bonds of understanding, and then when people feel comfortable in their communities, that gap between the police and the communities they serve narrows. And when that gap narrows, it's safer for the communities and it's safer for the police.

In communities of color, such as Ferguson, it often feels like the police are protecting the white community from us instead of protecting our communities from the criminal element.

W. Kamau Bell

We are demanding police transparency and accountability so we can build trust and work together to make our communities safer.

Malcolm Jenkins

The police, at their best, do three things; they prevent crime, they respond to crime, and they solve crime. In all three of those buckets, they need the trust of the community to do it, so I believe that if we restore the trust that we will change the way police are experiencing communities and ways that will preserve life and make everyone safer.

DeRay Mckesson

We need to rebuild bonds of trust between our police officers and our communities.

Hillary Clinton

The way you make communities safer and police safer is through community policing.

Tim Kaine

We have to restore trust between communities and the police.

Hillary Clinton

Racial profiling punishes innocent individuals for the past actions of those who look and sound like them. It misdirects crucial resources and undercuts the trust needed between law enforcement and the communities they serve. It has no place in our national discourse, and no place in our nation's police departments.

Benjamin Todd Jealous

Defund the police does not mean abolish the police. It means a dramatic reduction in the number of police in our poor communities and particularly our poor Black and Brown communities.

Jamaal Bowman

When the trust between the police and the communities they serve breaks down, everyone is at risk.

Eric Schneiderman

When I talk to Chicagoans who live in our most violence-prone neighborhoods, they do not hate the police. In fact, they tell me they want more cops and fewer gangs. They do not want more officers in cars just driving through their communities. They want officers on the beat in their neighborhoods.

Rahm Emanuel

I'm going to do everything I can to restore trust and build back those bonds between the police and communities.

Hillary Clinton

I think we're all safer when the police respect the communities they're supposed to serve, and the communities respect the law.

Hillary Clinton

...if we want to meet the obligations of our civilization and our culture which are to create communities for our children that provide them with the same opportunities for dignity and enrichment as the communities that our parents gave us, we've got to start by protecting that infrastructure; the air that we breathe, the water that we drink, the landscapes that enrich us.
