It actually is important.

You are suppose to call the police when you have a problem. You are not suppose to call gang members. Although it looks like there is not much difference.

A guy breaks into my home and I shoot him. Should I follow the correct civilized procedure and call the police or should I call my local drug dealer who will know what to do about an inconvenient body?

The second option may appeal to a lot of people as a simple method of making a problem go away.

When that happens we as a society are in deep trouble.

“And now it appears the Atlanta Police are not above this.”

What does Atlanta have to do with the beating death by cops in Memphis?

Third option: The basic rule to follow: Shoot. Shovel. Shut up.

Having a body buried on your property is rather risky.

I said ‘’the Atlanta Police’’, not Atlanta et al.

Cops
Killing non-cops
unarmed non-cops

That’s the division. That’s the problem.

>>That is not a couple of bad officers. This is a police department where the culture is down right criminal.<<

Clumsy wording on my part - thanks for keeping things straight.

It is a RELATIVE FEW, compared to the number of fine officers who do their work with integrity.

An the second point is well-taken. Police departments need oversight.

I know I’m replying to an old message, but, really? You’d use your own property for such a purpose? Your own backyard, or maybe side yard for that? Your own place?
