Restore the high standards!
I fully agree.
First, stop gender and racially based preferencial hiring........hire on MERIT ONLY!
Second, change the training regimen that puts such emphasis on personal safety......the line now is "the only thing that counts is that you go home at the end of your shift".....and that is WRONG!
Third, put a new training emphasis on Service.......
Fourth, make it easier to have officers with troubles removed from the force....or put in jobs without public contact.
Fifth....severely restrict the use of tasers.....classify them as lethal force.
