(1) Nothing prohibits officers from having to agree to these policies when they join the force. If they don't like it, they can find another job. Members of the military already have to give up certain rights while serving.
(2) A public pension is a public trust. Why should someone who has violated that trust be allowed to keep any interest in it?
(3) Those officers intended to use the force they did when they stormed that residence. That's premeditation. Even if I concede that point, though, negligent homicide still carries a hefty prison sentence.
(4) Giving those legal protections to police has given them the attitude that they are "above the law." This needs to be changed. Big time.
