I saw a CNN report tonight that said some of the memphis cops on that video, were hired after the city lowered the hiring requirements in an attempt to increase diversity. i’m sure that diversity comes as a great comfort to the victims family.

diversity really is overrated in some professions. Quality and competence is a lot more important, isnt it?

not a lot of improvements in gun laws after sandy hook. because both sides dig in amd refuse to compromise. both sides elect too many jerks.
One of the facts seared into my head is that when Derek Chauvin was convicted for murdering George Floyd, he was only the 7th cop to be convicted of murder since 2005, out of the 15,000 police killings in those 16 years.
