an embarrassing deflection.
first, your comparison with doctors is a false equivalency, and includes everything from medication defects, and insurance related posturing. second doctors face exorbitantly high malpractice suits. and yet still face jail for negligent murder. police do not with out riots and world wide protests. no other profession gets the protection of specialized legal doctrines and unions who organize the blue flu.
you then declare that because the medical system has a racial bias that police get to have special murder privilege. and yet forgot to tie that privilege to a need, so doctors get to murder minorities, so police should get to as well! OPPS!
… enforcement by necessity get a monopoly on violence, except it’s abundantly clear that the police can not be trusted with that power, ESPECIALLY with out actual oversite. with great power comes great responsibility, not a shield from it.
Your entire comment is very clearly bad faith and poorly-written.
The vast majority of it is a straw man and you would get an F if it was a 1st grade English writing test, indicating either that you struggle with basic (English) writing or you just can't be bothered to devote effort to this topic.
I don't think I need to waste anyone's time further by responding to it.
