    You can’t reform the storm troopers. Anything less than outright abolition is a waste of time.

      I agree with the first statement, but don’t understand your reasoning for the second. It’s a waste of time to hold each one of these guys accountable for their crimes? This wouldn’t be the first (or last) terrible thing that took multiple steps to dismantle.

        Because they won’t be. The system is set up to protect them. The system was made for them.

          But it wasn’t made for cops; they’re class traitors serving the people for whom it was made. And in this context, killing this guy would be holding him accountable.
