Cops have the minimum amount of training, it is a certain type of person that becomes a cop these days
It is not good to have people with guns who are not creme of the crop
We need to implement more funding into police to train them better
Police brutality is not the problem, it is a symptom — we need to address the underlying issue (undeserved communities and systemic racism in the judicial system)
