[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Look, you can acknowledge that the great majority of police-civilian interactions are non-violent, that there are people in law enforcement who do not want to be involved in either minor or major violent unjustified incidents, and that it's a job with risks ... and still say that external oversight apparently needs to be a part of the process, because what you all are doing to self-police isn't enough.

Those claims on either side of the ellipses are not mutually exclusive.[/quote]

It’s really hard to say “the majority of cops are good” when those exact people don’t turn in bad cops.

If it makes you feel good I’d say they are good (ish) people scared to lose their jobs and their lives. As good as you. But not great, not brave, not willing to give everything up to serve and protect.

They know what bad cops do and they keep their head down and hope their “good cop” behavior makes a difference.

But are they? Are they a mostly good police force just because out of 100 interaction only 1 of them is excessive force. Are you good with that.
