Lack of training

On the contrary, these pigs are doing exactly what the people in power want them to.

We put too much stock in training here, for things that should be obvious. How do we know you shouldn’t do that? I haven’t had any police training.

This is related to that “qualified immunity” bullshit. Somehow we let what could have been an appropriate thing turn into cops being above the law except in rare cases they were specifically trained for and there is existing case law. Bullshit. All too many of these look interesting headline cases start with “any sane person knows …” yet cops are above the law

None of the other cops stopped him from firing his weapon at the innocent lady
