Supreme Court asked to strike down immunity for police who brutally beat student
There needs to be a police reform.Before I became a programmer, I wanted to be a cop, studied criminal justice....as I was going to school I had some cops in class. I befriended many cops and started meeting outside of school with them.That has resulted in me switching to computer science. I saw cops drinking, telling me to have a drink and not worry....telling me to just call them if I get pulled over. This really didn't sit right with me, and bothers me even today. Then, I heard a story from one cop being out with cop buddies and driving wasted, smashing into car and running away.I also ran into extremely racist narcs in Chicago. Who would loudly say the N word around African-Americans.This was like 10+ years ago.I actually have a cop close to me now, he is a sergeant. He recently told me all his new recruits cannot write, and his job is to rewrite their reports. They have a hard time hiring people now, and this is in one of the most affluent areas in the US.It seems that younger generation have a very negative view of the police, and rightfully so. There really needs to be an overhaul, however, I really don't know how can you fix something so rotten.
