Policing needs to be reformed, inside and out.

1. It has to not be taboo for officers to seek help if they are dealing with their own demons (both personal and job-related). Offer mental health counseling.

2. It has to be easy and thorough to file internal complaints without the BACK THA BLOO brotherhood and unions getting triggered. Investigate complaints and handle them.

3. Test all officers every 3 years on a polygraph, psychological, and physical. Identify agency policy questions in the polygraph to ensure that any policies violated are addressed/identified

4. Rotate officers on different specialized units (Traffic, school resource, community outreach, code enforcement, etc) instead of making them merit/seniority based (except supervisory/investigative which require a thorough exam). This will help them avoid tunnel vision and getting “used” to the job and willing to do shit like overlook/violate policy.


It’s wishful thinking but i think if policing is a 20-30 year career, after dealing with the shit most of them do it’s easy to get jaded or lower the perceived value of someone’s life based on the nature of the call/individual/race/actions/etc.

Implementing those moves should help mitigate that
There is one much much much much easier step. Foot patrols. Get people out of their cars so they can't escape they are a part of the community.
For. Sure. Mine was more of a generational and revolutionary approach. But yes, requiring cops to walk the beat and not just call hop is key.

Staffing becomes a huge issue with that too though. Hard to not just call hop when you need 25 officers a shift and you have 9.

I definitely agree that spending more time in the community is important. Implementation can just be difficult sometimes.

I don’t think any of the ones linked there are her. She had a high paying jerb at Franklin Templeton.

One of those was a speech pathologist and the other was listed as “Not Employed”

Exactly. Thus, her political leanings remain unknown at this point.

It's like cancer screening. 150 years ago people died of old age or consumption or whatever. 50 years ago we got ok at identifying mid stage cancer. Now we can identify it earlier and treat it fast. We are identifying shit earlier. The disease is still there, but it's shrinking and we know about it. This is a good thing.

Everyone loves to point to Europe but fuck the discrimination and racism there is fucking horrible. It's less institutionalized there than here, so the hill isn't as steep to climb, but the day to day is as bad (or possibly worse) than here.
good way to look at it. Generally, people refuse to accept its getting better. The 24/7 broadcast saying how bad it is isn't helping.

As for europe? They have hotspots of actual nazis. People being killed for religion and race, and not isolated incidents. We are talking about you, Poland. The epic influx of foreign refugees is only adding to the tensions. I wouldnt be the least bit surprised if the native people went even more hard line against immigrants.

I mean, it's an uncomfortable thought but it's not :wrong: - the folks on the far right ARE racist and align themselves with fairly mainstream politicians.
no, its an unsupported over generalization.

One of my upstairs neighbors is moving out and I offered to help him carry some of the heavier stuff. Took down a couple couches and a big dresser yesterday.

Today he dropped by with a nice looking 1.5lb ribeye for me as a thank you. Apparently he’s the manager of the meat department of one of the Whole Foods out here :notbad:
