The question posed: Public Safety poses a serious threat to the civil rights of people on this island. Residents complain that the officers go too far and often resort to illegal activity because the officers have no knowledge of proper police procedure. What are your thoughts?

The candidates were asked to expand on their previous statements and talk about why they are running for the board and what their involvement in island organizations is.
