I'm not in favor of removing qualified immunity because I have former classmates who are police officers and some of them work in places where they are constantly dealing with violent crime and they occasionally have to things that appear criminal but aren't. They have to spend weeks justifying why they made certain decisions and if they have a pattern of behavior they will lose their jobs. If you speak to really good police officers in an environment where they don't have to worry about retaliation they will tell you directly they don't trust most of the police force where they work. Some of them are more afraid of their co-workers than the people they encounter on the street.
