    Poor quality or no training because there are no training and education standards & no filtering for violent candidates

    poor quality or no internal affairs oversight to prosecute unnecessary escalation and police crimes

    police unions that abuse the idea of worker unions to protect police from facing charges for committing crimes while wearing a badge

    no charges for turning off body cams during arrests or interrogations

    immunity laws that privilege police to protect them from facing liability for crimes they commit while on the clock

    failure to hold trainers and leaders accountable for the ill prepared and violent individuals they pay to put on the street with a badge who constantly escalate

    no licensing to revoke so when a violent criminal is fired they can move a state or county over and get hired into police again
