Lmao they already do. I literally was taught by a guy that makes policy decisions for my states cops. He's huge on accountability. Do you expect police officers to preemptively virtue signal when 99.99% of interactions are normal? Do you expect every single one to immediately take to Twitter and decry obviously bad behavior? Just perpetual shame for sharing a profession?
While you are right, I do expect there to be actual accountability when someone does make an extremely bad mistake that costs someone dearly in either value or their life. As brought up above, the Daniel Shaver case, in which the police officer was clearly in the wrong (if not criminally, for fucking up bad professionally enough to kill an innocent man) he was granted an extremely cushy retirement package.
If the reaction to most police fuckups wasn't "circle the wagons, protect our own above all" from the police themselves, there wouldn't be nearly as many issues with them from the side who wants to support them.
You know, the same process nearly every other job has. But I guess its more than just a "profession" to them, so they are more equal than other professions and deserves special protection from basic expectations.
Do you think it'd be better without the cops though.
Yes.
"But what about-"
No, it's still not justified, it still won't be better. It's a lie sold to you that you need the police. The reality is that the police are incredibly inept. Violent and non-petty crime still goes on every single day, but their priorities are shit like parking violations and speeding tickets. They exist to create revenue and an illusion of safety.
These cops are bastards. Stop this generalized anarchy porn bullshit.
And if the "good" cops don't call out this bullshit, guess what? ACAB

I expect them to do something towards a solution, like end qualified immunity. Thats not happening, though, is it

All cops uphold unjust laws through threat of violence. That's literally their role. Compliancy doesn't change that reality.
Yeah.

Retarded.
No one cares about your abstract, faux morality, under which anyone who supports building roads "WANTS YOU SHOT".
People care about their own lives, and their own lives are better with cops.
And how much crime would there be with no cops?
No kidding. No cops is way worse though.
