From the Youtube info:
Berwyn Heights, Md., Mayor Cheye Calvo describes police smashing into his home.
This is public information that anyone can get if you search for it. But in view of the investigation that Mayor Cheye Calvo is calling for and the FBI has initiated, some may wish to express feelings and words of support to the mayor and his family. A friend of mine wrote to me, "the problem is the mayor is now deeply involved. if he is a man of conviction he must open his eyes to the fact that this is not just something that happens in PG county but all over the country. he should make ending these raids his life's mission." Here is a man ... in a position ... to be heard. I would encourage those who share concerns of rising police intrusion and Gestapo like abuses into citizens lives and violations of civil liberties to contact the mayor and encourage him to pursue this beyond the confines of his own county. With a little support and effort - some people can make a difference.
For more context, you can watch the "War on Drugs" video of a Dutch TV documentary describing how the USA's "war on drugs" has not seemed to slow down the illegal drug trade significantly, but has turned into a great money earner for cash strapped governments, police departments and the "Prison Industrial Complex." The documentary starts off in Dutch, but then switches to English after a minute or two.(1hr 32min):
