    It's also like fake news about police misconduct. Fuck the fake news. The police are legitimately already shitty enough with enough legit examples without the manufactured ones. Police are only guilty when they're guilty. Otherwise they're just power tripping assholes and legalized bullies with the occasional good guy and occasional psycho.

      " I have a much more positive opinion of the police as a whole now. "

      I don't and won't, ever. They are generally mindless thugs, "just following orders," with too much on their plate, as intended by the ruling class. Their many duties should be greatly reduced into responsible areas of expertise so they can be properly held accountable. But they don't want accountability.

      I also realize the anti-police sentiment, current extremism, and rioting are all manufactured in order for them to claw at and demand more power without accountability.

      The police and media and brainwashed fellow-citizens are ALL tools of the real enemies of the people: the ruling class.

        Get the police to fight for the community to determine their roles (not the ruling class and their corporatocracy) - and then I'd support them.

        That's number one in a long list of things the police could change to earn my support.
