I’m sure you have done extensive research on the subject but how many of these controversial officer involved shootings involved officers without degrees?

So we wouldn’t have got Timothy Mcveigh or the DC snipers or Ted bundy because they were pulled over for minor traffic violations? Think about how dumb that sounds

Why not just set up road blocks on every major street? Just think of how many criminals you can catch then?

College degree has nothing to do with it.

Weeding out particular personality types would help. Removing some of the cops' responsibilities would be something else. Random drug testing cops for steroids would be good, also.

It’s a no win situation. At least when people aren’t willing to put in some work. Tests are racist. Math is racist. After a kid gets pushed through and someone realizes they never learned s*** it’s suddenly somebody else’s problem.

It’s hard. I’ve worked in bad parts of Dallas and Fort Worth and it’s a whole different world compared to where I grew up. I can hardly blame trigger happy cops when they are more often than not justifiably scared . But I’m also no fan of abusive government either. I tend to think that we’re probably safer when our police have teeth even though that can have a pretty horrific downside. What happened a few days ago looks pretty bad unless there’s something I’m missing.

Police need the ability to respond with force but generally should not have the attitude of doing everything by force, or even most things. But it’s a super thin line and is easy for us to sit here and say when we aren’t ones making split second life or death decisions.

Yeah, no one wants those jobs now for sure. It’ll eventually come back around to being more desired but it’ll be a while.

They way the cops job structured right now, they are set up to be like the plantation overseer or the jailhouse trusty or the kid the teacher assigns to write names on the board while she steps out the room... they're snitches too eager to do The Man's bidding. They just like f#^king with people over petty stuff.

DON'T act like an a-hole when interacting with law enforcement and generally stupid stuff doesn't happen.

You need to take a step outside the box sometimes. How could you possibly think with any certainty that all cops being armed is the best solution? How could you be dealing in such absolutes? Do you know something we don't know?

Why don't they come up with a different way to deal with minor traffic stops? I have received two speeding tickets by mail. Why can't they do the same with expired tags or busted lights? Why the need for face to face confrontation over such minor issues? Another issue may be municipalities pushing cops to write more tickets to help with budgets which leads to more face to face confrontation.

What’s minor about having an aggravated assault warrant and illegally possessing a gun?

The stop was for an expired tag. He ended up dead and the cop out of a job because of a mistake she made. There would had been other opportunities to pick him up for the warrant. If not for the stop for the expired tag he would still be alive and the cop still on the job.

Their was a warrant for his arrest. Why is this being glossed over?

Or if he hadn’t resisted and fled he would still be alive. Oh well.

No.

Is accidentally firing a gun when you mean to fire a taser execution of a death sentence, or is it simply negligence?

No one saying the family doesn't deserve compensation but it's not the equivalent of deliberately shooting a suspect in the back.

In this case it seems to be negligence. She was yelling taser and immediately knew she made a mistake when she fired the weapon according to the body cam footage.
