>The most simple minded can be critics, but what is the alternative? - Teaching police how to identify bias and showing them the alternative way to do things. This is basic statistics, but it can be boiled down. Actually, teach it in classrooms. Everyone should know it. A lot of "racism" in the US isn't intentionally harmful, it's bias. - Police handle outliers. We have specialists for different kinds of situations. If we created more kinds of specialists to handle more kinds of situations, we wouldn't need to rely on the police who are not trained as specialists but as generalists who don't understand how to best help the situation.
