The real problem is with police culture, as explained clearly in this video. We need to completely overhaul police training and police culture, starting with a recruit's first day at the academy. There should be an "honor code" like the ones at our military academies: the cadets "do not lie, cheat, or steal, or tolerate those who do." And that honor code must carry over to their service in the field. Instead, we have a situation where police "do not tolerate" those who refuse to lie and cheat in the defense of their "brothers". That's why police departments have to be rebuilt from the bottom up, with the new departments perhaps given different names to distinguish them from the old ones. |
