>>So are you saying that there is a systemic problem with policing in this country?<<
Yes, that’s exactly what I’m saying. I know it’s a tough job but that’s not an excuse for many of these deaths. Tony Timpa was already handcuffed and on the ground when police arrive, there was no need for several officers to sit on him and he lay there. Daniel Shaver was obeying what the police said while crying and begging them not to shoot him, Duncan Lemp was killed during a “no knock” raid when he posed no immediate threat to police.
There are things involving policing that must change. You could be next.
I agree completely. Much of what is being called for in the protests are changes to the system that would help all lives.
