I am appalled - APPALLED - at what law enforcement gets away with and at the most only loses their job. We only hear about killings, but the abuse of citizens is a daily occurrence. I think it always will be because humans are imperfect and you’re always going to have bad cops behaving badly. But we have GOT to have consequences for those folks. And, IMHO, they should be more severe than they are for me and you. If you want to be appalled as well, watch the Court Cam stuff and look at what they do to people in front of judges no less. Consequences, man. This is not too much to ask.

Sadly the killings are a daily (at minimum) occurrence as well. https://mappingpoliceviolence.org/ https://mappingpoliceviolence.org/ It's surprisingly hard to get people to understand that police shouldn't be killing guilty people either if they have the option not to. Like that dude robbing a store doesn't automatically mean he should be gunned down without trial when he's not currently pointing a gun at anyone let alone after he's in cuffs. ESPECIALLY when we know cops can make mistakes with regard to identity.
