There are many good cops but in the end the police are government and we have far too much government. We have too many laws and too many police enforcing these laws. We need just a few good "peace officers" and only a handful of "felony" level crimes. Get back to being "peace officers" not "law enforcers" enforcing thousands of felony level crimes and problems will go away.

Oh and lastly, drop the full auto weapons and military gear and training. The police are not warriors but they are being trained like there are. It's not a bit surprising they see everyone as a "threat" first and a citizen second.

[[It’s not a bit surprising they see everyone as a “threat” first and a citizen second. ]]

see my ;post above- they are forced to see them that way these days- society is very very angry these days, and much more hopped up on drugs than they used to be (before the 70’s) Especially in cities- Lots more ‘psychiatric problems’ these days too- plus lots more violent immigrants and foreign gang members and actual foreign terrorists and violent muslims around these days- (obama imported them by the millions)

Police work has definitely changed for the worse- and these days lawyers are right there- just waiting for one cop to not do everything 100% perfect-

[[We have too many laws and too many police enforcing these laws.]]

Exactly, Police work used to be pretty basic- now it’s very very complicated- so many freakin laws rules and regulations- and everyone just waiting for a policeman to mess up so that they can scream about the whole police network being corrupt-
