Show me the good cop stopping the bad cop and the good cop keeping his job after.
I'm so glad nothing happened to the guy. I'm pretty sure if the wife wasn't there he'd be dead or arrested and in jail for a billion years.
Yes, 100%. And my DAD is a recently retired NYC detective. And HE told me all cops are bad. Get a clue, b!
Wait, why did you... ohhhhhh, I know what you are. You're a "not all"er. Lol, fuck you say race for?

He was the last one I think lol, the rest realized it was better to fall in line then get murdered by the bad boys.
There are a ton of good cops America. but the criminal justice system by its very nature is incredibly racist and unfair for a lot of people.
It feels like the semantic argument regarding 'all cops are bad' is a less important one than: ok, ok, out of the 459,000 law enforcment officers out there 12,000 of them could objectively be decent people...sooo most cops are bad? Yay? If so why wouldn't 'The good ones' do anything about this perpetually heinous gathering of cops they find themselves amongst?
Edit: bah quoted wrong person, sorry mate
Some police continue to suck
They don't have records? They couldn't ask him questions without holding him against his will?
Like what the fuck are these cops doing? Yes, he could have provided ID to rectify any concerns but like, he shouldn't have to do that just to have a conversation with a cop.

Cops are either:
Bad
Look the other way when bad cops do something stupid (so the good ones are also bad)
Or are powerless to stop the bad ones (in which case, what good are they)
I must be developing psychic powers, since for some mysterious reason I knew this guy was black.
That made my blood boil... Full credit to the being assaulted by that asshole in uniform. The idiot was acting with disgusting impunity. The racism in the US is still so blatant.
This Bait needs more seasoning
I personally would drop the "in race" and "etc" part, just focus on the work force
Also remove the "!" next time, shows too much enthusiasm
I think he's one of those people who says like stuff like that get everyone worked up and never returns.
Policing is hard to change due to a number of reasons. Many Americans believed that the police are and have little problems. since most of the policing is a state issue many states have different views and how to fix that issue. There is also way too many police departments.
Do these departments answer to a centralized authority or is every department more or less independent? If it's the latter then I can maybe see where all these problems come from.
Yeah, I was at one point (regarding US cops, based on reports from the ol' place) 'But not all cops are bad', which sure is true, but if I was a ethnic minority, I would be scared for my life if a cop pulled up since such a large portion seem to be racist, uneducated, fascist or just plain dumb (or combination of everything).
The US law enforcement need a heavy reformaiton. It should require many years in college / university or special police school that is equalient to uni or college to become a law enforcement, now it seem to attract the bottom of the barrel.

they usually work under each state department of justice or attorney's general office if shit get bad but for the most part they're pretty much independent. It's like super complex man
for example I live in the state of Georgia there are like four levels of law enforcement you have state county City and miscellaneous

I mean that wouldn't fix the issue because the issue was never really is education or training. Because America is races our criminal justice system will be racist it doesn't matter if you have a college degree or a high school degree
Cops are allowed to police themselves most of the time. If it is bad the District Attorney can charge an officer but usually don't because they have to work with the police and a (white) jury rarely convicts.
I forget the instances which cause the FBI to investigate a city like Baltimore, Fetguson and Chicago but that falls on the US Attorney General which is currently a GOP partisan crook named William Barr.
If they have no probable cause there really isn't a need for you to show ID.
If Im not arrested for a crime, why do I need to tell cops who I am? They need a reason or they can get names/addresses whenever they feel like.
While true, isn't it shown that people with higher education is less likley to be racist and sexist?
I seriously doubt it. when you look at other institutions like healthcare for example where there are tons of educated people in there for the most part it is still super racist.
I think I posted a couple examples in a previous thread. They both got fired for not shooting someone.
It's worse than you think. Not only is the bolded the case, but when it does by chance attract anyone of higher intellectual capabilities, there are quite a lot of places that will outright block their application after determining them to be so, due to the desire to actively avoid having anyone who can think for themselves on the force. As someone mentioned though, it's not just the police that need to be reformed, but the entire criminal justice system in this country. The police are obviously an important part of that, but assuming minorities survive their encounter with police, they've got a judicial system wherein they often cannot afford adequate counsel, where judges will impose harsher sentences for no other reason than their race, and so on.
Where I am in South Carolina, we have three separate police departments within 10 miles of each other, then there's the county sheriffs department, and then state law enforcement (highway patrol, department of natural resources, protective services for state capital stuff, SLED is like our state fbi like you have GBI in GA.)
Again, four departments in such a small area, adding in all the state law enforcement, and there are policies for each agency that differ in many ways.
Good points, agree on all of them (and your saying that higher intellectual is sad...).
