RE: An Officer's Take: Social Justice and the Failure of Quantitative Policing

in #philosophy8 years ago (edited)

Educational standards isn't what I said, and I didn't speak about education at all.

I explained how what you do is immoral, and you have basically admitted to that in the post itself, I have pointed out that there is no meaningful purpose to "patrol" any more than there is for firefighters to do that, and pointed out that almost nothing has changed since slave catching days of Slave Patrols, which are the predecessors to cops.

You don't have to agree with me, but education is not the problem here, here the problem is people who are chosen on a standard that doesn't promote investigation, by limiting the IQ, by an organization that has always been above the law, which practices the very same discriminatory and racist policies that their predecessors have done, and there is no sign of a "reform".

All that exists is the the public outcry, the ostracized ex cops and ex commissioners and ex chiefs, amidst rampant criminal behavior in every large district, and the smaller ones from my experience aren't that much better, I remember reading an article when I lived in Nor Cal about one officer that enjoyed immunity and his sun turned out to be exactly like his meth head father that would steal people's meth and get high, and he was busted for the nth time and was still allowed back on the force.

I am aware that cops protect cops, even from pedophilia, as do judges and their buddies the DA, it's definitely a US vs Them, those that speak against such things get shitcanned, the disclaimer at the top of the post is there for a reason... while it's been mentioned before how cops have a hard time seeing anything that cops do as wrong, this is telling as you've addressed "education" instead of "iq limits for cops".

Again, your feedback appreciated. It doesn't sound like there is anything I can say to alter your opinion. Thank you for taking the time to read anyway!
