They did a plenty fine job demonizing themselves. A generation of police trained to be militarized against our own citizens and unaccountable to the law, covering each other's misdeeds up with routine impunity? Maybe it's time to rethink how this country does policing. And sometimes that takes a changing of the guard. Not even an ACAB type. I've had several run ins with the police, some positive, some negative. Some of them were extremely friendly and helpful. Others were power hungry and lied through their teeth in court. The profession as we've made it can unfortunately attract people for different reasons, both white knights and bullies. Mass resignations are a natural and probably necessary step towards actual reform. If only we could get congresspeople and Supremes to resign en masse too. This country is long overdue for massive social upheaval. |
