On today's episode, with Alex and Tom, we discuss the Philadelphia Police shooting of Walter Wallace. We go into what could have happened differently to avoid that outcome and how to avoid incidents like this in the future. We then discuss the actions that followed in the nights after which consisted of looting, rioting, and protests. We give our thoughts on the situation and what needs to change. Lastly, we finish the episode with addressing the rising political tensions in our country. I hope you enjoy!
