I hope they have secured situations for police that have to go to jail,,,
I don't. I don't like the idea of government rules being applied differently.
It's a system that should be applied equally, not a legal buffet of pick and choose.
Of course I don't believe people in jails or prisons should be allowed to interact with each other.
The whole point of jails and prisons is to ostracize.
Can't live by society's rules? You don't get to live as part of, interact with, society.
Shouldn't be "can't live by this society's rules? Go live in/by another one and then when you come back pollute this one with what you learned from that one made up of all the people that couldn't live by these rules."
Completely off topic, but if you want "rehabilitation" you can't put people in jail or prisons.
It's nasty propaganda that makes cops jobs harder.
it's constantly passing new laws and regulations necessitating arbitrary and inconsistent enforcement that makes cops "jobs" harder.
It's seeing it as a "job" rather than civil service that makes it harder.
But the whining people want to label all cops ask the same.
See? People are always looking for a standard, something that can be applied equally.
They will always find one.
Cops. Whiners. Men. Women. Nice guys. Bad boys. Black people. Muslims. White supremacists. Whatever.
Other than that, it's not too ridiculous to label all cops the same.
Because they're supposed to be.
They all wear the same uniform. Same gadgets. Same cars. Same command structure. They all have the same (or access to the same) training. They are supposed to enforce the law the same way.
All of that is to get people to see them the same way.
The desire is to be able to feel safe and secure enough to trust the uniform, to go up to any cop, easily identified since they're all the same, and ask for help, to see the uniform and feel more secure, a standardized service where you know what to expect.
There aren't supposed to be "good" cops or "bad" cops or individualized cops. Just "cops."
Ask any chain restaurant or grocery store manager. You need to give your customers constant and consistent good customer service.
One bad enough experience, and most people will simply switch to your competitors, go on yelp and give you bad reviews, and never trust any of your other stores whatsoever.
And they'll infect as many people as possible by word of mouth.
The law is McDonald's Corporation. Each cop is an individual franchise.
You get really bad food poisoning at the one on 4th street, you're going to have a bad view of and avoid the other McDonald's on Main, and probably the entire company. What does McDonald's have? Rules that attempt to make every McDonald's pretty much the exact same.
How do you feel about Wal Mart, or China, or outsourced to India customer service phone trees? Hate the company so refuse to shop there? But what about the individual little ol' lady greater?! By labeling all Wal Mart's (or whatever) the same and not shopping there, you aren't helping to pay that lil ol' lady's salary, and ultimately labeling all employees.
No different than labeling all cops the same by ones actions, just coming from a different angle.
Basic human nature.
more death would just be pointless...
Death is usually seen as giving point to life.
Consistency in enforcing the laws generally makes people feel more secure and willing to continue upholding social contracts that make civilization, people living together under a set of rules, possible.
Giving cops that are or become criminals special treatment would be worse than simply applying the law consistently, even if it leads to their death (and there's no guarantee it will).
