If, say, 10% of the public let the Police Department know that they were actively interested in what was happening IN THEIR OWN TOWN, thing will most probably change. A lack of accountability comes from a lack of oversight.There's no world in which I'm going to entertain the notion that the problem in question is ultimately the fault of a lack of interest by the random citizen. Cops shooting people doesn't come from people not being actively interested, it's just aided and abetted by it. It can also be reduced or even eliminated without the random citizen ever being involved or knowing how it's done.

Good people see the shit that is flung at ALL cops and think, "I'll do something else rather than be lumped."Thanks for telling me what good people do, I'm always fuzzy on that.
Good for you. If you find a person that says that kick their ass for me.
