    Personally, I think police are paid quite well for what they do. People join the armed forces and put their lives on the line for a lot less, you know. I don't think it's a matter of throwing money at the problem. It has to be better training and better screening.
    I don’t know why anyone would want to be a city cop for what they get paid. State cops do ok. These people can actually get killed doing their jobs and get paid peanuts for it. If there’s a more dangerous job in that pay range I don’t know what it is.

    Add to the fact they can be locked up for mishandling a situation involving a perp ‘of the wrong color’ just adds to it.

    Like I said, I respect people who chose to be cops but I wouldn’t touch it with a ten foot pole. Especially, not in the current climate.

    You can get killed flying cargo but people love doing it. We, the People need people who want to be part of the solution, not just greedy assholes doing it for a paycheck.

    You'd never pass the psych eval in most places. OTOH, Florida does cater to Trumpsters, Flat Earthers, Anti-Vaxxers and the Qless so you should give it a try.

    Is it safe to say then that you dont know which is the first amendment and which is the second?

    Well that explains why you wouldn't do it. And I wouldn't either. But there are plenty of people who want to do it. It's a good career for somebody getting out of the military. And it pays more. It's certainly not for everyone.

    I sometimes wonder why black communities can't get some of their own to be police. It just seems like it would be a far better situation if the police live in the same community they are serving and protecting. I would be impressed with a program to steer young locals into policing their own community, a program that includes all the best screening and training.

    They already do this in minority communities lol.

    Not that it matters. When blacks are killed by black cops the media doesn’t find it ‘newsworthy’. But policing is no different than any other line of work: if you want to attract better people you need to be willing to pay for them. And some of these clowns want to defund cops.

    I disagree. I don't think higher paid racists are going to be any less racist. We have to have better screening to ensure that racists do not join a police force, and we need better training to ensure that all lives matter to police.

    Part of the problem also has to address how to get the current racists out of police forces. We know they are there. Certainly not all police are racists, but we know that some are. We don't want any racism in policing. That has to get cleaned up.

    Some black communities have no local residents on the police force. That's a problem when there is already distrust and dislike for police in the community, and then you thrown in that the police force is white and from out of town, and the community is black and doesn't trust the police. How do police go from that situation to having a good relationship with the community?

    It was just proven.

    Guilty on all counts of disregarding the life of a black man. Such indifference, he just didn't care about Floyd's life. It was obvious. Floyd's very life didn't matter in the least to Chauvin. He actually looked bored as he waited for Floyd to die.
