I’m heated

Only when a politician's friend or family dies will something get done. Normal people dying is not an issue for them to change the law. Police have a huge spending budget and have the minimal training. We need to go after funding until they learn how to use it properly

The foundation of American society has to change.

The better question is what do you think or want to change precisely

News flash buddy ain't s*** going to change no matter how many people die or how many cops gets charged

Thinking about the justice system in america makes me want to kill myself💯

It would require some complete 180 of the entire ruling class’ ideals, interests and actions as well as combatting the inevitable military coup that would result from that ever happening, or a successful nationwide insurgency against the military police state

When we start shooting back. It’s not a question of how many more innocents need to die, it’s a question of how many cops need to die. Until we’re ready to recognize cops for what they are - the armed detachment of the capitalist state who exist to violently keep the masses under heel - and treat them as enemy combatants nothing will change and people will keep dying

The US state utilized counter insurgency tactics against the George Floyd Uprising because they treat this s*** like war. We need to also treat this s*** like war and act accordingly

Lead by example

What is your suggestion

Why would you change what's working?

My favorite about these debates is when rw people on Twitter are like “uhm ackshually cops kill more white people annually than black people”

And it’s like okay so just to check you’re saying that’s why…no one should care…? Especially you as a rw person claiming to care about white people?

Foreign sanctions and/or internal revolt

Without those we’ll probably see the nation severely shifted by climate change before we see any changes to day to day aggressive policing

This is exactly republican’s plans. Why would they want change?

I doubt it will take tens of thousands of years to see changing in policing. We already have seen reforms over last few years.

tens of thousands of years lol ok buddy

Feel like it’s a cultural thing over there

I actually wanna see people put their money where their mouth is

In the case of investigation

they gotta restructure the whole police system with stronger in depth training focussed on interpersonal skillset and deescalation and much less authoritarian tacticsm as well as a rigorous recruiting process. from a outside perspective what i see is two opposite sides of either defund police or backing the blue, i think neither is a solution imo. for something to change i think you need a politician in charge who actually got some balls

1. Stop allowing military people to become police officers
2. Stop forcing quotas (yes quotas are illegal but still get done unofficially)
3. Make police officers get out their f***ing vehicles and walk the blocks
4. Put an actual degree requirement on all police officer jobs

oh yeah I agree I am just saying we have to specify more than just say its bad. I understand even abolitionist but til we get there have to specify steps that can make it better

Until rich people want it to change.
