Understanding why something happens does not equate to support of those actions

And you like to claim that Democats hate cops...what we hate is bad cops.   And far too many of those are in departments all over the country.

You have large communities of people in every single jurisdiction, that have legitimate reasons not to trust the police.  Every action by a bad cop reverberates throughtout the community 10fold.  And you have a large number of police who don't trust their communities.  Every injury every death lreverberates 10fold throughout the police community.   Mutual distrust creates chaos and lawlessness

The paradigm won't change unilaterally

  

Pally, you seem very strangely anti Police Officers.  Can you please tell us specifically which officer it was that harmed you?
