[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]At the end of the day these cops out here are way too preoccupied with pulling triggers than preserving lives, way more inclined to instigate conflicts than deescalate them and that comes down to training. [/b] 
If you're fine and dandy with police being indoctrinated to shoot first and investigate later so long as it primarily affects black citizens in impoverished areas then I warn you...those tendencies to take extreme action won't be limited to just underclass very long.  
Eventually those bad habits of handling situations are going to make their way into the suburbs and before you know it, it's going to be more than just poor black families pressing police for answers after a loved one has been killed.  
History has shown that plagues - whether viral or moral - don't restrict themselves to single areas.  
They spread.  
That's what diseases do and this sickness of senseless overaggressive policing is steadily spreading throughout law enforcement agencies.
We can act now to address it in the interest of preserving humanity and protecting the rights of all citizens or we can allow ourselves to be distracted by petty nuances concerning race and class and allow the disease to fester and grow and ultimately put all of our lives at risk.[/quote]

This is such BS.  Cops preserve lives, deescalate conflict, and work to help others every day.  You don’t see this because it happens hundreds of time, every day, all year long, and it is so routine that nobody takes the time to record it (and it doesn’t fit into the narrative that cops are evil).  
The very few incidents that result in the deaths of people are taking up all the oxygen to the point that too many people are forgetting all the good the cops do.  
The above post is an example of that.  [/quote]
