This is stupid. Police aren't going out wanting to shoot dogs. Generally speaking they don't want to shoot anybody. They are doing a job that the rest of us don't want to do, and then we spit on them when they make a mistake, while enjoying the protection they provide.

If you have a problem with cops, go become a cop and show them how to do it right.

There is a special irony in him dying on september 25th (9/25) as 925 Silver Sterling is the jewelry quality standard in the United States and most world markets.

What a crazy world.

I have a problem with the government and it is often immune and shielded from the results of its own mismanagement.

Cops would have it better as individuals under the stated system because they would have better scope. Citizens would be more self reliant and cops would likely be better trained and used less when two neighbors were just being dumb.

Cities and neighborhoods would have to solve their slum problems not just offload it to cops through more hours, extra work load.

I'm talking about holding the city responsible. Not the cops. Cities that can't function should fail and be replaced by those that can solve these problems.

Citizens do not have a "right to a corrupt city " like LA that grinds its cops and citizens to dust for profits for a few elites.

Oh I totally agree, I'm not saying cops are perfect, they're human beings and they do make mistakes like the rest of us. And I'm certainly no fan of criminal cops getting away with things. They need more money though, so they can be better trained in non-lethal restraint. "Banning choke holds" is one of the dumbest policies ever. Properly-applied choke holds are one of the safest ways to restrain somebody without having to fire a taser or a bullet. Meanwhile "Defund the police" basically just means "I want more crime". It's moronic.
