Black Lives Matter releases its policy platform

What's "broken windows policing"?

The Broken Windows Theory basically says that places with a feeling of disorder will inevitably lead to more actual disorder. It is the tried-and-true tactic of changing the perception surrounding lawbreaking. It helped save New York City.

The name comes from an experiment where researched placed a car in two demographically and criminally  similar neighborhoods beside abandoned buildings. One abandoned building was still mostly intact, no graffiti, and maybe having windows intact or well-boarded up. The second building had graffiti and broken windows. One looked more orderly than the other. The car beside the broken windows was  broken into and vandalized at a much faster rate than the other.

May I ask why BLM opposes the policy? I am just wanting some clarification is all.

Well, one of the bestest when you're trying to end the perception of disorder is having police in high-crime areas with some pretty substantial police powers. This is why it appears that the NYPD has such racially lopsided enforcement. Officers are given stop-and-frisk powers and placed in high-crime, and therefore minority, areas to stave off the feeling of lawlessness. It's worked wonders and saved lives.

I'm not surprised that O'Malley and Bernie are the best on this, but it is incredibly surprising that Hillary is about as bad as Republicans on this. I'd like to know how Biden stacks up.

This isn't exactly an objective rating.

Besides, Hillary was asking BLM to come up with policy proposals, so she could then examine them and adopt them.

They're just trying to screw her over because she didn't pander to them.

This is literally the definition of pander.
