It's almost as if we are seeing a trend with thousands of bad cops. Videos of them all over the Internet committing felonies to arrest someone for jaywalking. Shooting and killing people who are following their commands. And yet still nothing is actually being done to hold police in check. Sure, we arrest the ones who get caught on video. But with the sheer number of bad police that we have fucking evidence of, it should really make you think if the police are actually good and not worse than the criminals they claim to be there to protect you against.

Maybe some sort of systemic change from the federal government is needed instead of letting every district dictate what the qualifications for being a cop are. 15 years ago when I considered joining, I looked up the qualifications and process and it was less than the training for a car salesman at the dealership I used to work at. GED and the ability to run 2 miles in 30min got you in the door because they have such a hard time hiring. I'm sure it's changed some by now though... Hopefully.
