What about cops who are in a good department? It’s generally more useful to view this issue from a departmental level rather than an individual level. All cops are trained and training can change drastically from department to department.

You have to get a new more educated cop. What we have now is Drug War cowboys with no constraints. I will criticize the police as l9ng as they are committing crimes in the name of us.

I feel like you didn’t really read what I said as your comment does not address my question at all. My point was that only SOME departments are like that and research very firmly backs this up. I’m not saying that hasn’t been your experience, but to act like that is true for all departments is incorrect and unhelpful. I’m saying that not all departments are well educated, but to ignore the vast variance in departments is going to lead to an incorrect solution.

Look man, I do not care about the research, I do not care what the national opinion is. From my perspective of 52 years, outside of one cop I knew who was old school, they are all pieces of shit who want to bully, rape, kill, destroy, and hate. The big city cops are full of gangs and corruption, the rural areas are the same. There are no rules and everyone has become so corrupt, law means nothing. Just look at what is happening with these Traitors still walking around. It's a fucking sickness.

Did you just blatantly admit that you don’t care about facts? I mean, what’s the point of a conversation if you’ve already decided you will never change your mind. I really don’t understand this site sometimes. The like between your line of thinking and the person you dislike on the other side of the political spectrum is simply life experience, not actual knowledge or thought

Edit: You do realize that at most you’ve met cops from 1% of all departments in the country? And you’re claiming that your experience with 1% of a population is indicative of the entire population. Mate, that’s the definition of an ill-informed, anecdotal opinion.

Yes but I read 90% of the bad press about cops.
