"I'm giving federal immunity to police officers so they can do their job." - DJT
Look around, how are LEO'S treating us with qualified immunity? We cant trust these people with Federal immunity! They already walk around like Feudal era Samurai, mercing citizens at the slightest provocation. This is the first and only agenda 47 item im against and I need to know how the community feels about it.
We gotta get someone in his inner circle to talk him back from a huge mistake here. Why are we giving the greatest amount of latitude to those with supposedly the most training, and then holding the untrained citizenry to the highest moral standards of all? Police need more ACCOUNTABILITY, not immunity.
First of all "police" are literally corporate policy enforcement that have NO obligation to protect or help citizens in any way at all.
Second, most cops aren't great and some are really bad. It's certainly a case of the many ruin it for the few.
A big piece missing from this statement by Trump is the new "police" will be enforcing actual laws (rather than corporate statutes) and those laws will be based on the constitution. Our legal system is supposedly going to be reformed with real input from we the people (not this corporate citizenship crap).
I'm hoping that we get real freedom instead of a 1950s reboot when it comes to our legal system but we'll have to see how things go.
