The alternative is to have actual accountability to those that we give huge power to
if you are a police officer you should be held to a much higher standard and there should be a truly independent investigatory body to look at any officers when there is suspicion of them being involved in the death of a member of the public.

let's not forget that they do an often dangerous job, and get paid fuck-all
who would do the job with that hanging over them as well?

They get paid very fucking well
and nobody forces them to do that job.

They have so much power they ought to be held accountable.

I don't think police or teachers or nurses get paid anywhere near enough

They could be paid more, they could stop trying to steal their pensions
but they are not paid badly.

I'm all for paying public servants properly.
You should know that.
