I also cant stress the comparison to miltary police action enough. What we have in the us with extrajudicial killings, up until this point civilian forfeiture, the shuffling around of killer cops, and the legal system that offers broad discretion to officers enacts exactly the circumstance of an occupied village under the watch of hostile combatants. They rape and pillage, and then get moved to a different station. This state of affairs we have domestically is a war crime fountain anywhere else in the world. Why would it go well here?
staring at their gear on the uniformed broadcast while deployed to a conflict zone, thinking "god damn, that's a nice kit, co, where can we get kits like that?". Watching them skate on the "i was scurred" defense wishing our roe was that permissive.
There's a reason that the service downgears and gets strict with action reviews in domestic actions. It isn't because we hate the troops or because every human being is a terrible monster waiting to abuse their power. It's because a set of known circumstances produces these outcomes regardless of the saintly moral character of uniformed personnel.
