Somehow this is the only country on earth where this seems to happen. When talking about shootings involving guns, okay, fine, the US is certainly an outlier there, but every country has cars and police.
This is murder.

I’ll agree that a gross majority of american police is deserving of simply being fired and criminally accused of any number of crimes but there are good people working as police and the option to not have police, at all, would lead to even worse results than this.
It’s a country with a very long and convoluted relation with firearms. The entire american ethos still echoes around the image of the cowboy and pioneer pushing troubles aside and delivering justice at gun point.
Remove the police and you’d see the rise of private “security” and people mowing down each other in broad day light.
Generally, no, there aren’t good people working as police.
There have been good people that work for the police - and, when they discover incidents like these, will criticize and lambast the murderers at work (because good people tend to criticize murderers). However, police unions tend to fire good people like that. So there’s good ex-cops out there, but not good cops.
That is a very broad stroke.
I’ll stand by my words.
