> Doing stupid shit like that will only close their ranks and put a target on every law-abiding citizen's back as police become more paranoid than they already have been trained to be. We're already in this part. Closing ranks further is just showing people most police force's true colors. Everyone was willing to overlook police abuse as long as it was targeted against minorities but now the average person has had a direct negative experience or has some relative that was railroaded by the prosecution and a lying cop. > We should incentivize the reporting of criminal behavior by law enforcement officers and work to open everything to public scrutiny. This isn't working.
