I don't think police should kill as many people as they do. They are way too trigger happy.

I was making an argument that the police is about as shitty for whites and blacks. It's not a matter of racism, but of bad policing. I want police to be better to everyone, not just black people.

If we don't address the root of the problem (and racism isn't it), you just end up with other Baltimores. For example just the other day I saw in the news that NYPD is losing officers at twice the rate since 2020.

And in fact the solution is more money and training to the police. Police don't get trained, especially in high pressure situations, which creates even more mistakes.

People upset with the police should be asking for funding the police and more training, not defunding them.
