"How would you fix today's police forces?"


  

          

1) Police Academy becomes a 2 or 4 year degree, rather than a few weeks/months of training. If you're accepted, you pay no tuition, and get paid a relatively small salary to be a full time student.

2) Federally Operated Independent Prosecutor's office to try all crimes committed by police or politicians (note: I don't know much about the DoJ, so I don't know how much of this infrastructure already exists). This eliminates the conflict of interest between prosecutors and police/politicians that we see all the time. Creates jobs for all the law school grads looking for work, and you can offer student loan forgiveness for anyone who stays with the department for more than 5 years.

3) better cameras. there are some instances where officers have been caught deliberately turning off their cameras before committing brutality, but there are other times where just the jostling of a physical encounter has the potential to accidentally hit the power button and/or stop recording. This seems easily fixable.

Also, I'd put dashboard cameras in squad cars that automatically turn on when the lights/sirens go on, and spot check the videos that are less than 0:30 in length, to catch cops that flick the lights on just to run a red light. First violation is a warning, second is a suspension, third is termination. It's a relatively minor offense, but repeat violations even after a warning and suspension without pay are indicative of believing you're above the law.

4) add on...

*Jews you*

"this is okp tho, reading is completely optional" (c) desus

Proceed with caution. I am overtly racist.

                your niece is shooting clear targets in broad daylight at 11am
Dec 29th 2014
40
                     if a cop can't hit a target in broad daylight
Dec 29th 2014
46

Dec 30th 2014

Dec 29th 2014
16
how are you going to pay for this?
Dec 29th 2014
23
      if you cannot afford to train, you cannot afford the guns
Dec 29th 2014
37
           stop being dumb, a 9mm costs $300 retail even cheaper buying bulk
Dec 29th 2014
43
                stop copping pleas

Dec 29th 2014
72
                                    while they write grants for tanks they should write em for training
Dec 29th 2014
78
                                         trainers require time/money. The tanks are free
Dec 30th 2014
79
                                              they need better money managers if they can't budget for training
Dec 30th 2014
86

Dec 30th 2014
92
                                                        You can still win a wrongful death suit without an indictment
Dec 30th 2014
104
                                                             my point was these DA are trying to sweep these cases under the rug
Dec 30th 2014
106
                                                                  hey math man, how many guns and training does $1B buy?
Dec 30th 2014
108
