Two Wisconsin police officers were killed in a shootout Saturday. Both were from towns of less than 5,000 people.

There was an update to the story on the local news show yesterday to name the victims and deceased perpetrator: https://archive.ph/dr06R
In my unfortunate state of mind, I thought briefly about the regressive takeover of US institutions and got to wondering if we will eventually see mostly leftist rank-and-file police officers.
There have been a few stories posted recently of police scandals or selective enforcement, but many were from Canada or the UK. It seems that those places already have mostly true believers on patrol.
In the US, we clearly have some issues of what gets prosecuted and punished, and I believe some cities are or will be changing policies and standard police practices for EqoOtY reasons. I guess I don't know if the officers themselves are or will be compliant with some of that, especially if it ends up killing them.

Look at what's happened to our military. And look at what's already happened in progressive megacities. It's absolutely at least a possibility that regressives seize law enforcement institutions too. To some extent they already have.
On the plus side, the military being fully staffed by leftists makes future 'changes in management' A LOT easier.

Yup. Although there's pros and cons to everything. A more right-leaning military would still mostly follow orders, and oppress you. A leftwing military will gleefully torture the shit out of you, if you have the wrong opinions, skin color, sex, political affiliation, religion, etc.
But, as you said, also easier to handle, less competent, less capable. But if they ever get a little bit of power over you, you're fucked.
