Not all cops are bad but the problem with the 'a few bad apples' defense is that the full proverb is 'a few bad apples spoil the barrel'.

A single bad influence can ruin what would otherwise remain good.

Bubba from the Hills can be trained and armed with the finest, deadliest military assault weaponry on earth and sent in, door kicking, gun pointed, fully expecting to be fired upon in this foreign warzone, and not shoot the unarmed brown people inside and quickly move on to real threats.

So why are the police so jumpy that they murder people with their backs turned?

Really what they need are honest consequences for their actions. Those that end up killing someone tend to have had issues in the past and nothing was really done. They need longer training and to be held accountable and not just because it’s trending and there is a lot of social pressure. It’s a job requirement...there should be a zero tolerance policy.
