Why some of you are struggling to understand that is puzzling. All  the reform and rules and regulations imaginable will not change the fact that humans are performing these jobs and will sometimes fail miserably but for the most part do it admirably and honorably. The bad players are the outliers not the norm. No matter the perception being otherwise.

I just don't see how the burning, looting, and murder (BLM?) and cries of "racism" will lead to the reforms that would actually make a positive difference. None of those policies are based on race.

But maybe I'm wrong. A coalition of Dems and libertarian Pubs in congress is proposing a bill to end qualified immunity (only for cops unfortunately, not for other government workers where it's also abused).

How would you respond to the many people on here who say that reform is impossible and pointless because it's only a handful of bad people?
