MFBKBass5 05/30/20 3:26:36 AM #1:	As much as I support these protests, whats the end goal? Police chiefs just telling their cops ok guys dont be racist anymore isnt gonna work. Throwing around the word accountability is too vague. I think the first step is some sort of zero tolerance policy towards ANY office who uses unauthorized force against a civilian whos not posing a threat of danger. No second chances. Instantly removed from the force and banned from ever being an officer again. What else? No one seems to have tangible, concrete ideas for police reform that politicians could actually pass into law. --- !!!!!!!!! https://imgur.com/DzJSPWA <cite>MFBKBass5 posted [p:939924650] in No one is ...

apocalyptic_4 05/30/20 3:40:01 AM #12:	Accountability is one no officer should get special treatment or paid leave for incompetence leading to death. What triggered these riots was the fact it took days for this man to be arrested for grossly killing that man and the 2 red necks that gunned down that jogger not getting arrested until footage leaked. This is a deeper problem than simple police reform but the lack of real punishment has always been the problem and complaint. The racial side of it I honestly believe cant be fixed no way to vet racists from joining. --- XBL: Mrpicardbottoms <cite>apocalyptic_4 posted [p:939924889] in No one is ...

MFBKBass5 05/30/20 3:45:31 AM #16:	I think one of the biggest issues with cops is simply abuse of power. Having ultimate authority the way they do is disgusting. It corrupts good men and women to think they can do whatever the hell they want. Yeah, the racism is a huge issue...but everyone has a story dealing with a shitty cop who violated your rights and got away with it. I like the idea of an independent oversight of officers, but I just dont know how it would work. It would need to be people very well versed in the law. --- !!!!!!!!! https://imgur.com/DzJSPWA <cite>MFBKBass5 posted [p:939924973] in No one is ...

I'm sure the crime spree will change things No one is asking for preferential treatment. They're asking for accountbility and equality. People keep being abused and killed and the guys doing it are rarely punished and when they are it's only due to immense public pressure. Not because of a functioning system. If Arbery and George's murder weren't recorded, the guys who killed them would be watching porn right now, living their lives as normal. And it actually might cause change. History has shown that violent crime has actually caused political change. The United States of America is literally built on that. I doubt it will since Conservatives are hellbent on ensuring positive change never occurs. But the notion of "nothing ever comes from violent protests" is just innaccurate.
