> Improving safety involves convincing citizens to trust police. Why is the onus on citizens to be convinced (with an assumption that police are actually trustworthy, but people just need to realize that)? Trust first requires that the police are worthy of it. Given the daily incidences of police abuse, power trips, and violence, they're very far from earning that trust.
