Dear Senator Schumer:
Please find attached a copy of a letter from President Donald Trump, Dated April 25, 2018 regarding crime and law enforcement. President Trump expressed the resolve to reduce crime, restore public safety and to strengthen law enforcement in the United States. Moreover, President Trump is recommending new laws to protect the police. We have asked the President to consider recommending new laws to hold the police accountable to help prevent future unjustified shootings of people within the United States. Here is the problem, there are members of the law enforcement community in the United States that are killing and abusing innocent people and they are not being held accountable. Today, we have a fear factor and a justified lack of trust; the current climate gives some people justification for not trusting and fearing the police and on the other hand there are reasons for the police to fear some people. If adjustments are not made the police will continue to kill innocent people and more police will lose their lives. Moreover, there is fertile ground for racial riots in various cities around the nation.
God says: Thou shall not kill!” God created mankind and God has heard the cries of many and has given me the authority to speak in His name to the leadership here in the United States regarding this injustice. President Trump did not create this problem however he inherited it. We have voiced our concerns with President Trump because he heads the Executive Branch. However, the Legislative Branch has a part to play to help ensure that there are effective laws that truly protect the citizens of the United States from the Law Enforcement Community when they abuse their power. Surely, it is the Executive Branch responsibility to ensure that those laws are enforced. Of course, the Judicial Branch has a part to play, however now it is imperative the Legislative Branch ensure that this matter is carefully studied and bills are submitted and passed and laws are enacted to protect both: (1) the members of the law enforcement community (2) the people from the law enforcement community abuse of power and to truly hold members of the law enforcement community accountable. For this to occur there must real debates to effect changes that are in the best interest of the people; this is about public safety. Therefore, it is of the upmost importance for each member of the House and Senate to remove their political badges and work in the best interest of the nation.
I am a Prophet of God in the name of Jesus. The good news is God has not revealed to me racial riots breaking out across America; however the bad news is that God has showed me there is increased racial tension in the nation, even within our military. I am prayerful in respect of the lack of revelations of racial riots breaking out across the nation that this means that President Trump and the Legislative Branch will take action to enact new laws to protect the law enforcement community and to hold the law enforcement community accountable. Moreover, we pray that the laws will be enforced and Justice will stand. God knows!
We pray in the name of Jesus that you will take action now to help restore public safety to hold the law enforcement community accountable. We look forward to the removal of all political barriers and the passage of new laws that truly protect the members of our law enforcement community and new laws that hold the law enforcement community accountable to help ensure the safety of God’s creation, mankind.
Sincerely yours,
Elmore Richmond Jr.
