I see a lot of people in this thread justifying murder when that’s REALLY not what’s needed. That will just lead to the only people willing to be cops is maniacs with a gun (who are NOT in short supply) when we really need cops who can take a moment and think.
It’s not hard to make it through the application process as a compassionate, clever person.
It’s just hard to stay employed while butting heads with supervisors that aren’t, and the public sends you thoughts and prayers from the sidelines. Sure, they’ll riot when evil cops are caught doing evil stuff, but they do absolutely nothing to notice or stop good cops from getting forced out.

We need to murder the concept of cops as we know them today. That’s the only murder we need. No individual’s death will fix a fucked up system, gotta kill the system itself.
I wish. There was that one cop was put away for defending a woman from SA a year after snitching on his fellow officers. His laywer said never heard of jail time for 1st time misdominer. They literally put him in a cell with a known cop killer. Who said naa this is one of the good ones.
Why would I think of something better than a strawman when replying to a strawman?
As I said in another post: Cops protect the bourgeois, white-supremacist, colonialist, patriarchal state by enacting violence on the ruled class. That’s not a judgement: it’s their purpose in the system.
Individuals with bully-like personalities self-select into that job, while decent people are actively shunned. Because group cohesion is more important than “doing the right thing”.

Those people are actively filtered out by police.

My guess is its Kremlin propaganda, the same divisive stuff they pushed during the George Floyd riots

This one time a bad thing happened so now its OK to advocate murder
Sure, all the police violence incidents are “individual outliers”. /s
Can you think in anything more nuanced than anecdotes and sweeping generalizations? Got anything better than a strawman to respond with?

Why do you defend cops so much?

No man, there is plenty of organic distrust of the police here. The whole legal industry is fucked.
Sure, that’s how they work. They find a crack and use a wedge.
