You’re taking advantage and coming off like rebellious teenage feminists who get invited to presidential debates and attack with emotion rather than reason. But I’ll play your game.
why is it not easy to get fired?
union
what does "get yourself in trouble" or being "screwed" entail?
depends. Leave without pay, leave with pay(your vacation hours), demotion, termination, etc
do you have co workers that you sense might be prejudice towards certain demographics?
miami is a melting pot so for the most part, no. Although you do have depts here that are prodiminately white, pro Hispanic, pro black, depends on the city. Miami dade county prefers Spanish because of all the Spanish speakers, but somewhere like Lighthouse Point will be pro white. North miami Pro Black.
would you be against settlements coming from the officers pension responsible for the lawsuit?
yes. But that’s with any profession
would you be against an independent organization looking into police-involved homicides?
no but that’s dumb, that’s what IA is for. But if It helps you sleep at night then ok if an officer has nothing to hide then there shouldn’t be an issue
do you tell a bad cop to "sit this one out" after they use excessive force?
no because in the heat of the moment you’re more concerned with what you have hands on at that point in time. It’ll get addressed afterwards though, most likely by brass
how many co workers have you witnessed use excessive force? what percentage of those suspects were poor people?
excessive force? None. It takes a real pos person to target poor people and I’ve never witnessed that. A lot of people sometimes underestimate the proper use for force in different situations, and that’s why a lot of you have this fascination that legit everything is “excessive force”
do you only become familiar with the citizens of the community you're patrolling to coax them into giving you information? how many residents are you familiar with for reasons that aren't self-serving?
you definitely misconstrued what I said on this. They come to us with info that helps us better protect them, we don’t fake kindness to coax info as you asked. Maybe some officers in this profession do, but from what I’ve seen. We’re truly genuine when we interact with the community.
how much de escalation training were you required to have?
more than enough, and training never ends. You need to retrain, rewualify, take refresher courses etc
how much training dealing with mentally ill people have you had?
same as above
