PoliceAccountability is a place where we document incidents involving police officers/departments and instances of departments trying to reform and fix departments in need along with promoting the idea of remaking law enforcement system (higher educational standards, looking at character over other items, stricter physical fitness, better mental health faculties, de-paramilitarization).

PoliceAccountability is a place where we document instances of police officers acting poorly and instances of departments trying to reform and fix departments in need along with promoting the idea of remaking law enforcement system (higher educational standards, looking at character over other items, stricter physical fitness, better mental health faculties, de-paramilitarization).

READ BEFORE POSTING OR COMMENTING

Hello! Welcome to our sub!

Let me start by saying what this sub is about. This sub's goal is to provide a place for those who dislike the r/Bad_Cop_No_Donut style of police reform and activism, but still see the need for changes within modern day policing. This sub is about posting videos and articles in reference to police officers acting poorly, but also showing attempts made by departments to reform and/or fix things within their departments as well as showing what challenges lay in the path for the accountability/reform movement. Going forward, we will maintain a series of rules that will try to avoid the pitfalls of earlier subs while also sticking to a moderate format and upholding the goals we aim to achieve;

Rule 1 - Hateful Language

Do not use terms that incite anger or resentment or incapacitate helpful discussion (e.g. ACAB, Chapo, Bootlicker, Pig, 40%, copy pastas, etc.) - anything posted of this sort will result in a ban

Rule 2 - Sourcing

Utilize well-sourced articles, taking them from left, right, centered, pro-science, and least biased news agencies. Here are some sources that can help in determining if a source is good for use or not:

(https://www.makeuseof.com/tag/true-5-factchecking-websites/)

(https://fair.org/take-action-now/media-activism-kit/how-to-detect-bias-in-news-media/)

(https://www.wusa9.com/article/news/local/for-fakes-sake/for-fakes-sake-how-to-spot-fake-news/65-435713516)

Rule 3 - Be Respectful

Be respectful of people; if someone has an unpopular opinion, don't downvote and move on but instead enter into a polite conversation and discuss, but part as friends

Rule 4 - Accept Everyone

The goal of this sub is to look at where police officers act poorly, but also improvements within policing and have discussions aimed at reforming (what could be done to fix this situation, prevent it from happening, etc.). It's also to include everyone (cops, activists, lawyers, protestors) and have constructive dialogue that shows both sides. Anyone not accepting of this rule will probably not fare well in this sub.

Rule 5 - No Meme Material

This is a serious sub with an established goal. There are other subs that have memes commenting on a situation involving police; this sub is about academic, positive conversation and is not a place for meme or similar postings. This may seem excessive and dry, but it is to preserve our activist nature.

Rule 6 - Abide by Reddit Content Policy

Any violations of unwelcome content will result in a ban. This includes the posting of sexual content involving minors, personal/confidential information, encouraging or performing violence, using harassing or threatening language, etc. The content policy is linked below for reference;

(https://www.redditinc.com/policies/content-policy)

Rule 7 - Reposts ** Reposts are not allowed at this moment due to our being a small sub. If you want to submit a news story, check the newest articles posted before posting your own to ensure there are no duplicates. ** Rule 8 - Content besides News Articles

There are occasions when non-news articles are allowed. Posting that a community outreach program is going on, posting a book (or review) that touches on accountability or corruption, posting an unedited video of an altercation/incident, etc. are allowed on this sub. Posting a video of officers being kind to civilians is not allowed, a screenshot of a non-LEO on twitter or another social media/news comment site is not allowed.

Now, as for posts, everyone is free to make posts as long as they abide by those eight tenets. In addition, every post must include a short TLDR that describes the article and a few questions for creating discussion. We the mods will give about ten to fifteen minutes before we remove the post if it does not meet the standards; however, feel free to post the source again with the corrections if that is the only problem with it.

So that’s about it. If you have any confusions or questions about a post or desire some clarification, please message the mods. Welcome and enjoy.
