[QUOTE="ncurd, post: 1034339, member: 72205"] I'm just going to take this snippet the police in US need better training this is does not necessarily mean they need better funding. For one as this exact incident showed even if we take "I accidentally used my taser" at face value the fact they were armed with two pieces of equipment shows they were possibly over equipped (and this does appear to be the case throughout the USA). Redistributing the funding towards training instead of equipment. This is some of thinking behind 'defund the police" although obviously like all positions there are extremeists advocating for no police or crippling them financially. But if you stop them being essentially a well funded paramilitary organisation they would have to find alternative method to policing, that don't require gunning people down unless in an actual life threatening situation where actual highly trained professionals are called in.
