Hi Darth,
They board up because it is so rare to get a conviction in these cases.
Wow. We finally got one bad apple.
But nobody thinks that's it.
Everybody knows there are tons more 'bad apples.'
Police training is sadly out of date.
And lots of racists are able to sign right up to be cops.
Anybody who wants to be on a power trip.
This is no fix. It is a warning.
America, we've got work to do.
The only reason this one resulted in a guilty verdict is because of that video.
And for every one of these where there is a video, just think of all the ones where no such video exists.
Hundreds? Thousands?

Hello Darth,
If police work was bringing great approval, their funding would be unquestioned. When they are bringing highly objectionable performance then the people want to make changes. I don't think the answer is taking funding away. The answer has to be getting the right people to do the right things. Clearly Chauvin did not do the right thing.

Because he was poorly trained. The racism angle is like reading tea leaves. Why do you even go there?
It’s like any other line of work: you get what you pay for. If you want shoddy work done on your house, go with a cut rate contractor. Want shoddy police work? Pay them 15 bucks an hour.

Hello Darth,
Wait a minute. You're the one who said police needed to be paid higher. That's easy enough to say but the hard part is determining where the extra money is going to come from to do that.
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.
