Why would they think that, and why would their training suggest or imply that? Why should they have known better?
Known better with respect to what? Particularly if we're suggesting that they thought their training would dictate it, that they thought that society would assent. Is this just one of those inexplicable mysteries of the universe, like what happened before the big bang, you reckon?
Here's one that isn't rhetorical. How, do you imagine, has a person who has in their own estimation been against police brutality and for the need for reform, found themselves making common cause with cops who maced a fourth grader as...... again in their own estimation......a negative reaction to the religion of anti-racism? If I were in the business of spreading racist propaganda - I'd be reading you like you were writing a manual. Does the absurdity of your situation, in this regard, ever hit you?
