What part is unbelievable? This happens all the time. We only hear about it when someone dies.

There's an extremely small difference in personalities between those that join the police and those that join the ranks of violent criminals.

I didn't watch, but I heard about it. We are a country of laws, so this needs to go through the legal system, but there's some serious soul searching that needs to be done about police recruitment and training.
I've been waiting over 5 years with bated breath for someone to say that!

Whoa whoa whoa
Can we wait for details to come out? The end result definitely should not have happened, but it doesn’t mean that mr Floyd didn’t escalate it. Maybe the officers life was in danger 30 seconds before? In that case it would be understandable ( but not necessarily right)  that he wouldn’t wanna to let up at all, as from the few seconds that I watched it seems like the officer was much smaller
But I don’t know any details and I assume that the officer is wrong and deserves to be fired
But that doesn’t mean that we need to overhaul the entire system, it means there are some bad apples
i think posts like yours are what causes water to be thrown at the police, the mentality that the police is out to get certain people is disastrous and makes the situation a million times worse

How many bad apples do you need to grow before you give up farming?

From your post, it seemed like you put all police in the same boat as having similar personalities as criminals.

That is much closer to what I wrote. I didn't say that police are "out to get certain people" (nor do I think most criminals target "certain people") it's indiscriminate towards the most convenient target at the moment.

You beat me to it. I was just looking up the quote in order to bring it here.

שבת קנו ע״א. It's probably worthwhile to read the entire portion, not only מזל מאדים. Certain personality traits can manifest in different ways.

I was pointing out the last four words which I bolded which is literally the exact point you were making about police.

Huh?! fired?!
Somebody murdering someone in cold blood deserves a bit more I think.

חסורי מחסרא והכי קתני

"the officer is wrong and deserves to be fired at."

(not saying this is my opinion. as I said above this needs to go through the legal system. But until then the officer should be assigned to the most menial desk duties at most, or put in a jail cell pending trial.
