It’s difficult to figure out what to do when copies of your particular niche community exist in 5 different places, all with very similar subscriber counts.

What icons are these?
You’re thinking about the positive impact it will have on the small, egde-case outlier cops who intentionally hurt people for the fun of it, and not the majority of cops who never do something that would attract views on social media now having to alter their decision making process because if they ever happen to make the wrong split-second decision their whole career is over.
It will deter normal good people from being cops. It will deter the logical, respectful, moral person that you’d want to be a cop from becoming a cop.
Why do all of you think I’m saying cops should be allowed to do this.
I said in my first post and every post after that that I think that cop should never be allowed to be a cop again.
What is wrong with you? Why are you so hungry for a fight on the internet?
I’m not even going to try to talk to you.
Almost all attempts at taking freedom away are done under the guise of increased safety.
I think people hate the police more than the military.
Yeah I think they’d definitely have to increase pay and benefits in this scenario.
It’s just gonna be hard sell convincing people to vote for politicians that say “we need to increase your taxes to increase police pay and benefits”.
Ok I’m all for that.
We just need a strategy for when no one wants to be a cop.
Low salary, risk of death, and risk of losing your career is not a combination that works anywhere else.
It’s almost like MMA, or the NFL or something. In those professions you have the risk of death/injury plus the risk of losing your career, but the payoff is fame and wealth.
For police there is no payoff lol. Right now the payoff is sort of “whatever you do it is always forgiven and you’ll always find a new job in another town and never go to jail for your mistakes”.
Obviously that is bad and should be done away with, but it needs to be replaced with a new payoff or else the job is not worth it.
I said he should never be a cop again. I don’t know what you want from me dude lol.
Imagine me saying to that cop “you should never be a cop again” and him saying “hey thanks for the support man”
Once I start spending 20 minutes on social media responses I delete the app anyway.
I don’t think they make more mistakes than anyone else at their job.
There are ~50 million police interactions in the US per year. Think about how many bad cop videos you see online in a year. Even if you saw 1 every day that’s 0.00073% of all interactions.
It’s just that their mistakes are typically more severe than other jobs.
I’m not disagreeing that there should be harsh punishment, I just don’t know the gameplan for when people no longer want to be cops, and what to do with the former cops.
With corporations owning politicians, an education crisis, a housing crisis, and the entire country hating eachother it doesn’t matter what voting system you tack on. We need some sort of reboot as a country on many levels.
