Why are were so afraid of the cops?

Growing up we were taught to respect authority and the police will always be there to help you. We learn to trust the police.
Over the years, we learn that the police presence is all that is needed to stop any wrongdoing. We learn to fear them. Now, the militarized police have total authority, not to be questioned. We learn to keep our distance from them. They know everything about us. They have access to our homes and businesses. We need an agency that have tabs on them, addresses, names, recorded recognition and discipline. The police force needs an outside, government accountability group who will keep tabs on them. Then the balance order will shift back to where we can once again place our trust in this group.

"Defund the Police" does not work I suggest

"Police Education, and Socialization" - PEaS for short. They need re-education and re-socialization with their community members on their beat. What do you suggest?

Recent events remind me of the movie "The Purge"

I think the altright groups have been waiting for this since the day the big turd was elected. If protesters can get organized, they can help expose the truth about these imposter postesters.
