My response to that is &#8220;stop killing and abusing minorities&#8221; maybe then you will have a better image in your communities. I know, not all cops are bad ones but they all lie to protect other officers, they all use too much force and use force as a first resort instead of a last&#8230;.and way too many of them ARE racists who never think their job is to protect and to serve but that they are in a war zone and that any force they decide to use is justified&#8230;.I also don&#8217;t think that it is the citizens job to know how to interact with police to ensure they don&#8217;t get killed&#8230;not getting killed should be the default setting in these interactions&#8230;it has gotten so bad that a great majority of the population will not call 911 for help since they fear that when the police arrive it won&#8217;t be to help&#8230;but will cause even more damage&#8230;.so, yes police&#8230;you do have a problem&#8230;and it is your problem not the citizens of this country&#8230;you need to reform your practices and how you view your jobs and you need to stop killing unarmed people&#8230;that would be a good start&#8230;geez&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Well&#8230;I had a good laugh this morning when I read about the response of many police departments to the protests against police killings and brutality towards minorities when they whine that they are all being tarred with a broad brush and their little feelings are hurt that people think they are the problem when they &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/?p=9556\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading <span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Police whining&#8230;.<\/span> <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[416,1147],"class_list":["post-9556","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-politics","tag-police","tag-reform"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9556","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=9556"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9556\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":9557,"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9556\/revisions\/9557"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=9556"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=9556"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jamesdevol.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=9556"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
