SHOCKED. SHOCKED I TELL YOU. The reform doesn't mean to be defunded, but to have better more stable interactions coming from officers who can have better and more stable interactions. Hailblazers asked earlier if psych evals happened... and I don't think they do... but they need to. That needs to be front and center of the reform.
I can confirm this. I'm a mod here as a direct result of my formative experience with raw power as a crossing guard in elementary school. barfo
There used to be a lot of them out there. I thought police departments must have improved by now. My bad.
https://www.yahoo.com/news/no-apology-owed-pepper-spraying-001005315.html Virginia police chief says Second Lt. Caron Nazario is not owed an apology for being accosted and pepper sprayed by officers.
No apology is due for racially profiling the dude, pulling their guns out leading him to believe he is going to be killed, pepper spraying him, beating him up, and threatening his life not to tell on them. No...no apology needed at all. Yeah, dudes a millionaire now
