Why the US military usually punishes misconduct but police often close ranks
Okay, here I saw no mention of the relevant points in"Executive Order on Safe Policing for Safe Communities"June 16, 2020athttps://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/executive-or...So, in short, "money talks"!Yes, it's the money the DoJ has long been giving to local police departments to help them "protect and serve" and in general be pretty.So, we get to set up a company, say, Local Police Audits, Inc. and a company Audits and Approvals, Inc.  The second works to make sure the DOJ thinks they are pretty and, then, works to make sure the first is pretty; and then the first works to make sure the police departments, e.g., in Minneapolis, Atlanta, NYC, Baltimore, etc. are pretty, get a coveted, official pretty prize.And if a police department does not get a pretty prize?  Then the DoJ "will make them an offer they can't refuse" -- get a pretty prize or lose your DoJ money.The Blue Line, police contracts, and police unions aside, this offer will be meaningful to the local mayor, town council, and maybe the local newspapers, voters, taxpayers, chief of police, the state governor, and even the mainstream media (MSM).It's all right there in that executive order.
