They hire ex-cop contractor buddies and give them gobs of municipal money to do a ‘training’ session where they brainwash the entire force into thinking that they’re at war with an insurgency as dangerous to them as alqueda was to the military that so many of them came from.

This is one of the reasons they’re so trigger happy. Right from academy they’re taught this, and any recruits who question it get dropped. One of the more famous programs is literally called ‘Kill-ology’.

if you create a situation where the cop does not feel safe

You reach for your license ‘too fast’ - cop does not feel safe Acorn falls on car - cop doesn’t feel safe You are boiling water at home - cop does not feel safe You are writhing in pain underneath their boot - cop does not feel safe

US cops are literally brainwashed into feeling like the public is a threat to them. They are wired to look for a reason to escalate.

As much as I’m against parasitic practices, I wonder how the inevitable corruption of money would (further) skew research if academia was well paid for their papers.

The book ‘Determined’ makes a great point on how schizophrenia victims have been mistreated throughout history.
