Re: Cops 6: The More You Pay, The Faster We'll Come!
No, it wouldn't. We had video of Eric Garner being choked to death for no reason and nothing ever came of it. We had video of Daniel Shaver being executed, for not following contradictory commands that made no sense, by the cop who engraved, "you're ****ed", into his weapon. You're objectively wrong.
Video is necessary for holding cops accountable but it isn't sufficient.
Other things that must happen:
+ Start taking criminal defense seriously. Guarantee effective and fully funded counsel.
+ Force police, DAs and judges to commit to finding the truth not getting a conviction
+ Stop hiring racist low lives as cops. Purge police of their small d-cked military wanna bes.
+ Remove military hardware from police.
+ Practice de-escalation. Punish cops who make the situation worse.
+ Remove the protection of cops and departments from being sued. They are servants, not masters.
+ Get the cops out of social monitoring. They should be a response team to a specific criminal situation with carefully calibrated capability.
+ Stop sending guns into unarmed situations. The cops should assume the risk, not innocent bystanders.
In short, start treating the poor like the rich in police and judicial interactions. The citizen should have the benefit of the doubt. Armed cops should be a small, carefully trained force and they should be closely guarded against infiltration by gung ho as-swipes.
