I don't stand behind him at all. He was on the dudes neck way too long after the guy went LIMP, and all his buddies were telling him the guy is dead, you can stand up now. Then it came out those two have a personal history? I think it was deliberate. Nothing to with police brutality or procedure at all, I think it was purely just personal vendetta.

Did you read the transcripts from the arrest?

I agree.

I also think the same pervasive low standards across the country are a problem with many police. Chauvin has a record of being a shitty cop. We gotta hold folks to a standard and fire those that can't maintain or surpass it.

The kids I managed at a few retail locations and small kitchens were held to a much higher standard than what I see ANYWHERE these days.

Maybe we have these companies and departments give raises to the best performers and start getting rid of the shitty folks?

Well, the low standards definitely come from the pay scale. The less you pay the worse people the job will attract. And it's already a job that attracts the wrong type of person. TO raise the payscale would require liberals and democrats agreeing on something. Sooo....

Nobody is forcing anyone to stick to a minimum. You can always go higher.

Every job has people that perform better but nearly all of them keep folks on the same payscale for "fairness"

This is about departments, businesses, leaders and managers doing the right thing.

Yea.. equal pay is BS. Really bad in the unions (from personal experience).. just encourages everyone to work no harder than the slacker of the group

Maybe the folks who live in these deep blue shithole cities could elect competent leaders who would actually do something to ensure their police department is properly trained, instead of hiring incompetent faggots and posers, then blaming Trump when the incompetent faggots inevitably fuck up?

Have you been through police training?

Do you have a point? Mine was, if the folks in these cities with all these problems want better trained police, they need to blame their own elected local officials, who are, you know, in charge of those police - not POTUS Trump who has jack squat to do with training or supervising their police departments. Chauvin had complaints dating back over 10 years. During those 10 years, the dem A.G. declined to prosecute him, dem police chief declined to reassign or fire him, dem mayor did not press the police chief to get rid of him, dem city council likewise did nothing about him.
