The summary execution of people in cars driving away from aggressors in unmarked vehicles and unofficial clothing shows everything wrong with the state of law enforcement over there.

Poor training, poor discipline, poor vetting. It’s either incompetence or intentional.

You don’t draw weapons on a vehicle stop for starters, and you don’t stop in a way they can easily drive at you. You especially don’t do it in a busy street with bystanders and colleagues nearby.

This quote from one incident is really telling.

Standing in front of scared civilians with weapons drawn and expecting a rational outcome.

These people are scared of their own shadows. If your first instinct is to protect yourself (the implication of being ready to murder someone), and not the persons in the vehicle, or the general public, you’re in the wrong job. Intellectually immature without the emotional intelligence to de-escalate.

Stop giving away badges and guns in cereal boxes.
