I don't know about your area but in America police are often trained to be fearful of every encounter with the public, to the point that they are trained to shoot people before they can determine what's happening. I'm all for being their context, but i think just saying that we are may be glossing over a lot.
@RnDanger @dalias @bmalsuj Depends on which way you flip it. From180Β°, it's sliding a new foundation underneath, taking on the load of fundamental change.
Although I totally agree, big-picture thinking is one step away from throwing a penny in a wishing well. I think we know we want policing to change, but we need to be realistic, it's not going away. The question is what to do next.
