Despite what police organizations and their allies allege, there isnt an anti-police movement in this country, or at least, none of any significance. The people demonstrating for Eric Garner and Michael Brown arent against police, they are for better policing. They want departments to treat their communities with respect, and they want accountability for officers who kill their neighbors without justification. When criminals kill law-abiding citizens, theyre punished. When criminals kill cops, theyre punished. But when cops kill citizens, the system breaks down and no one is held accountable. That is what people are protesting.
