Are we going too far?

nothing

it has to do with the cop being fired investigation pending and then being charged for doing what he was trained to do

He wasn't trained to use poor judgement.
I already said there should have been an investigation before being fired.

I don't know what qualifications you have (in JS) but I heard from a srgt that they're trained to shoot in such cases.

Yes you will hear that from many in blue. They stick together 99.9% of the time.

What does Jewish tradition say about ‘Defund the Police’? It’s complicated.

@Dan I think on DDF they usually ask "Link?"

Are you seriously comparing slavery in the Torah to slavery in America?!?
Good grief. Go learn what Biblical slavery was and then go open a history book.

I think Every Man A Slave by Sender Zeyv should be required reading because it compares and contrasts these things very well.

And don't forget the sequel, Gone West, which was serialized in the Mishpacha Magazine a few years ago.

Now we're really off-topic, but I think that one doesn't hold a candle to the original.

On the subject of Sender Zeyv, Aleph Shin is a good but weird read (and slightly creepy, given 9/11 shortly after the book came out). Of course the sequel (Ten Lost) is just off the deep end but still a somewhat enjoyable read.

Honestly, I didn't read those two books, I was just pointing out that there was a sequel...

Aleph Shin is a great book IMO. I view the sequel as the commentary on the first book, and something that should only be read by superfans who want to delve into every detail of the book. Otherwise, just skip it.
