Naah. Taking the guns away or the tazers or the nightsticks does nothing. The conduct is the problem and the conduct is not and will not be addressed. And in all truth I do believe that everyone, including abusive police, have the right to self defense.
The solutionin my view is to drastically reduce the number of police and for people to stop calling them unless someone needs killing. Because that’s becoming the all too likely result.
No. The real problem isn’t the occasional bad cop.
The real problem is no matter how egregious the outrage, all cops close ranks and protect him or her.
There is no effective mechanism for punishing, let alone removing, a rotten apple, no matter how much it’s oozing, no matter how thick the cloud of flies or how tangled the mat of maggots.
The whole barrel suffers.
