Declaration Project

I declare equality for others and their rights, and that judgment should be discarded and never brought back to the citizens that are fighting or fought for equal rights and respect. I also declare that we should be safe during all types of police investigations. Police should be held accountable for their actions. They are made/put here to keep us safe and they are doing the opposite they are the ones hurting us. One example is Mike Brown — he surrendered, and even though he surrendered they still shot him instead of proceeding to arrest him. I also declare an end to inequality and to stop police brutality. To do this we need to put more surveillance cameras around so we can watch every move of the police. The whole point of this declaration is to provide equality and respect for everyone.
