Re: American Cops - again
I'm outa here too....But I agree with Todger, the bloke blake was a 'no mark gangsta' and probably was just as ruthless and violent as the police were to him. I certainly won't lose any sleep over him. Just one more tosser taken off the streets......

Re: American Cops - again
https://www.cbsnews.com/news/police-...nd20the20worldOfficers in both countries must attend their nations' three-year police universities, and leave with degrees that are equivalent to a bachelor's.
In many U.S. police departments, the stereotype is that officers in the prime of their careers try to avoid the burden of training rookies. What's left, is aging officers who themselves haven't been through training in decades, young cops who haven't gotten enough experience, or bad cops who get stuck with the assignment.
"Different departments have different incentives to sort of convince officers to do it, but the bottom line is that in many departments the worst officers are the ones training."

Should be followed up on !
But imo the main problem is the prevalance of guns and the
willingness to use them in all sections of the american society,
this is caused by america's history and firearms culture seems
be embedded in the peoples psychology and will be difficult if
not impossible to change?
The police now tend to rely on the gun as the first thing to use
instead of it being the last, and in fact quite often they use it to
carry out justice instead of using it to bring suspects too justice,
thus short curcuiting the actual justice system of the courts !
The policeman in fact becomes the judge and the executioner often
even in what are quite minor misdemeanours because the suspect
moved incorrectly or something !
Better training would definitely improve this aspect of policing and
combined with better phycological screening etc could make a
difference?

https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/...-police-reportPolice also reportedly let the gunman walk past them with a rifle as the crowd yelled for him to be arrested because he had shot people, according to witnesses and video reviewed by the news agency.
Seems Donkeyman that the police have deep-rooted, entrenched influence in the ranks.

And our cops seem to be going the opposite way by being almost
totally unreactive??
Imo both lots need re- educating !!
