Sen. Paul Calls for More Resources, Respect at Police Conference in Bowling Green

U.S. Sen. Rand Paul says law enforcement groups are being unfairly criticized in the media and in public debate over police violence. Paul spoke on Thursday at the Kentucky Sheriff’s Association meeting in Bowling Green where he denounced the idea of defunding police. “Of the killings that are going on in Louisville, they have more murders per capita than Chicago. You would think by what you read, it’s the police killing people in Louisville. No, it’s people killing people in Louisville," stated Paul. It’s not an easy problem to fix. I’m not here to say I know how to fix the murder problem in Louisville, but I know it’s not getting rid of the police.”
