People being so upset over cops these days is both sad and amusing.
Many are rightfully pointing out instances of cops using violence while missing something that's right in front of them.
Cops are paid with a cut of the money they act as the enforcers to extract from you. The entire policing model is based in a threat of violence if you don't agree to pay them, even if you want to seek other alternatives. The forcible monopoly MUST be paid.
Until that is changed, all the Joe Bidens and Al Sharptons posturing at funerals, all the "new training" suggestions, all the protests etc., won't change the root problem, which creates the cop brutality symptoms.
Protectors who are paid as a result of threats of OFFENSIVE FORCE cannot then claim to be the ones protecting the same people they threaten. That is the definition of extortion. To call it something else is an attempt to distort reality to make what is "normal" also seem acceptable.
People who say "it's time to defund the police" and then clamor for ways to redirect all that revenue to some other thing they imagine is better are forgetting they need cops and guns to ensure the money is taken (extorted) in the first place.
People are believing in two opposing things at once, gee what a surprise. Peaceful people don't extort to fund their good ideas.
