Deal with the bad ones
Now certain groups are demanding that the police departments be defunded. Sounds like a great idea. We got a taste of what it would look like with no police intervention when the Chicago police were allowed or directed to stand down as violent mobs destroyed North Michigan Avenue and portions of the South side.
The majority of police officers are good decent human beings who are trying to protect our citizens and communities while exercising a great deal of patience and restraint. Instead of condemning them all let's deal with the bad ones swiftly and appropriately.
