"Focus and training"? What an oversimplification. You might as well send thoughts and prayers. Some (notice, not all) cops get away with murder, and the blue wall of silence usually protects them. The cops police the cops. Most DAs go along with the cops.
In this thread we have a bunch of commenters blaming the victims. One could call it depraved indifference. I applaud you in trying to reason with the unreasonable.
The police are more militarized than ever. The police are sent when social services, or lack thereof, should respond. "If the only tool you have is a hammer, everything starts to look like a nail."
