Alex Wigglesworth at Philly.com offers a piece on Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey and the Black Lives movement.
Protesters who hurl anti-law-enforcement invective are missing opportunities to make a difference in community-police relations, Philadelphia Police Commissioner Charles Ramsey said during an appearance on Fox News Sunday.
Ramsey was on Tuesday forced to cancel a community discussion at the Eastern State Penitentiary after demonstrators from the Black Lives Matter movement interrupted him with shouts of "racist police."
"I think it's ignorant to do things like that," Ramsey said Sunday after host Chris Palmer played a video clip of the confrontation.
"But I also think the people that are serious in this movement are missing an opportunity to really make a difference," Ramsey continued.
