"More training" is going to do nothing but allow PD to get more guns, more ammunition, more effective ways to do what they are doing to us.
These cops are competently able to follow protocol with non-black civilians it seems. What they are appearing to show is a lack of restraint from shooting black people. If you have to train somebody not to shoot at a skin color, they shouldn't be given a badge in the first place. That's how you solve that problem.
Micah was able to do what he did due to the element of surprise and his military experience. Nobody was really expecting a black person to go that hard with full urban warfare. Those police officers probably performed as best they could given the situation.
Yes and no.
Depends on the training and the indoctrination.
the job just isn't taken seriously enough...
local police should be as trained as military personally when it comes to close quarters combat....non-lethal combat, hand to hand combat... and multiple routine psych evaluations....3 or 4 a year... at the minimum and after each and every incident
it should just be more than 1 fitness test at the beginning, written test, classroom setting for a few weeks.....and a highschool diploma.....
the stakes are far too high, and the numbers show that far too many lives are being lost to law enforcement.....even if you take black lives out....american cops still kill far too many people for this not to be considered a serious problem....
if doctors were killing as many people as cops were.....we'd seriously have look into what the fuck was going on...
if any job where you have someone's life in your hands killed as many people as police do it would be a problem....
cops should be....i unno... professional fucking experts on how to take down, dis-arm, and restrain an individual with out fucking killing them.....
that shit is fucking important....they need to fucking act like it
