republicans are out in force all over social media stoking violence.
From gun boards, rumble to Truth Social they are out of their dam minds.

Did you see the video? I can't find it.

TBH, the justice warriors cry wolf all the time with these cases, so it's not like they have any more credibility than the NRA crowd.

They should have been looking for a day with really garbage weather to release the video. As hot as people's passion for justice might run, it's usually not hot enough to get them out on the streets in bad weather.

I don't think releasing the video on a Tuesday afternoon would be any better.

If people are scheduled to be at work at 9am Wednesday, they’re less likely to be out protesting (with potential for things to go off the rails) in the wee hours of Tuesday night/Wednesday morning. Friday night, people often stay out late because it’s the start of the weekend, the. There’s a whole weekend for protesting and possibilities. I’m hopeful that the way it’s being handled so far will let people feel heard and hopefully everyone stays safe.

The people who work at 9AM on Wednesdays are typically not the people protesting. They're the ones whose lives the protestors are trying to disrupt.

As horrific as this video is described to be, and as often as crimes like this are swept under the rug, I'm guessing it's going to enrage and motivate a lot of people to want to bring about change.

Also, why do you think protesters don't have day jobs? Would you care to explain what you mean?

Exactly what change do people want?

For the police to vigilantly respect our Constitutional rights as citizens. And when they violate said rights, as agents of government they are swiftly brought to justice without favors.

-Another agent of government who would never get away with any of these violations of US citizens’ rights

I personally, as a family member of many police officers would like a way for a cop to report bad cops without retaliation. Good cops can report bad cops in the current system.

Do you know what "thin blue line" is? Do you know what "blue lives matters" means.

it means snitches get stiches or at least no backup.

This. I have two female family members who are LEOs (one sibling, one cousin) who have to put up with a lot of BS you don’t want to know about. But reporting misconduct would jeopardize their safety. It shouldn’t be that way but it is

How do we change this? Have any departments successfully changed the culture so that good cops can stand together against the ones that need to go?

I fail to see how a bunch of republicans are able to influence black people to go out and commit violence in the name of protest. Can you please explain how that’s possible in your mind? I’m really trying to understand your thought process which arrived at this conclusion. Can you please elaborate?

I don’t think there is 1 department that has changed 100% but many that have implemented some things.

Like the Denver STARS program.
Like getting rid of stop and frisk, 3 strikes your out, mandatory minimums, freeing people who are jailed for $5 worth of pot, etc
The innocent project

My younger cousin cop said he wished he wasn’t trained by older cops who pass on “bad habits”.

But nobody has 100% reform that I am aware of but I’m hoping someone post something that proves me wrong

Labor laws are too protective. Even if they are non-union, they'll claim age or race or disability or gender if they happen to be in a protected class. Even if not, they'll claim defamation or something if any word of their bad behavior reaches the ears of a future employer (or even if they simply get passed over for the job.) And if they *are* union members, then Katie bar the door!

What if victims could sue police unions for compensatory damages? Would that change the culture?
