Send in the social workers.

[Spongebob]

For some reason conservatives are biased towards cops because they are putting their life at risk to protect those that abide by the law. It's the Dirty Harry fantasy. But those cops all chose that line of work; they weren't forced into it. And if the number of innocent people shot by a cop is more than zero then there's a serious problem. When a simple traffic stop turns into a bloodbath and the only person who had a weapon was the cop, that isn't justice. Cops are not meant to be judge, jury and executioner. That is not a civil society. If this happened just once per year and we were all appalled and the offending cop was imprisoned then I would say the system is ok, but we all know better than that. When doctors, lawyers, engineers, teachers, and many other professions are negligent and someone gets hurt, the victims have a right to pursue legal action. Cops are protected from that.
