So to reiterate, I think we need better training of the police for these type of situations. I really am disturbed by the mindset I see reading comments on these stories and the police blog(forget the name but it’s the one where you have to enter your badge number to post so we know it’s not just people faking being cops) I had the displeasure of reading as this case has unfolded that too many seem to think that deadly force should be used often. I also think better screening of potential cops would be good too. Perhaps more psychological evaluations. I don’t know what it takes to join your average small town police force in this country, I assume a high school diploma and not much more. And I’d also tone down on the militarization of the police too. From what I understand a lot of our surplus military equipment goes to police departments and that’s something that has unfortunately really increased in recent years. And perhaps also our officers should learn some things from countries that have few shootings of civilians compared to ours. And we have to confront the big elephant in the room that no one likes to talk about but is there. The racial element.
