It's more than one, which is too many. Disarm the police, they don't get to be executioners. Edit: and before anyone says the next thing that is always said, step two is disarming the general population.

I guessed under 100 and it might be 36 from what I'm seeing. Well, with ~60 unknowns.

I'm sure I'd be shocked to see how flexible these people are that they're reaching into pocket dimensions to pull pistols out and kill themselves. That's definitely the most plausible scenario here.

The two cops in here making glib jokes thinking they're rolling with the punches when people give them clear cut examples of lovely cops is pretty disgusting. These are the good cops? These are the cops changing it from within? Get the gently caress outta here. These are the cops justifying it to themselves online while they go buddy it up with the rest of the cops at the station.

I don't understand what's so unreasonable about saying 0 is the number we should working towards for unarmed police shootings, even if disarming the public would be required. I know that grouping everyone together on the two sides of the argument here isn't fair, I don't think I've told anyone to kill themselves for instance. But you guys seem to be trying to provide a good faith argument here for why police are doing certain things and then I'll see wanting 0 unarmed people killed is unreasonable, or It's my job to arrest people, and I'm just like "Oh.... this is as good as it gets?" I wrote this before I saw the last 3 posts

I can appreciate the idea of inescapable complicity when participating in a corrupt institution, but do we really think these institutions would be better off without Smiling Jack and others? Or more broadly, that reform isn't an answer? Haven't many police departments improved in the last few decades, just not as quickly as our morals have progressed?

Nah, screw that guy, fire him and charge him. Even if the professional opinion of the other cops is that the DA won't pick up the case, fire him and charge him, and let it be on the DA when they drop it.

While I agree he should be fired, it wont just be ok the DA if the case is dropped or he gets off on the charges. If he has a union that's how you end up with the city paying out in a lawsuit for an improper firing.

I would rather thr case get dropped than for cops to just say there’s nothing we can do about it because it’ll get thrown out. Make some effort instead of falling in line with the poo poo people loving hate. You’re perpetuating the problem people have with the system and only making people hate cops more. Put the burden on a lovely DA.

Ok, I hadn't thought of that, which is always the danger of dropping hot takes in some subject you're not an expert on, so let me say this instead: that guy needs some kind of stink to follow him to keep him from making a lateral transfer.
