incidentally, "conservative" here just means we wear athleticwear for, or to signal participation in, athletics. as such we expect athleticwear brands to promote an image of performance and athleticism this is lifestyle brand adverts 101. nike's image is not pure athletics now
Imagine having a job that destroys your body. Every year a suspect fights you. This year you will get stabbed in the kidneys. Next year your jaw will be broken, etc. You have to endure 20 years of this to retire. Now would you give a shit about police brutality?

- there's a lot of angles i could come at the issue bc it's systemic at this point, everything feeds back into everything. but a rough answer is US cops aren't paid near enough to care about it - in general i'd be less displeased w/ the average PD if they followed mil rules tho

AF screens out criminals, so Air Force has very little crime. (Unlike the Army which has like a rape every week AF has almost none). On top of that AF cops are accountable to base commanders while Army MPs r not TLDR: whose rules? Varries by service
-
maybe... anyone but army's then haha. for marines we can limit it to the ones allowed overseas, slightly higher standard there maybe that's a good standard to emulate -- have cops meet the same criteria used for overseas screenings
-
might cause a supply shortage, but ignoring that as a possible bottleneck it's a good goal: those screenings, as you doubtless know, are basically just sanity checking 2 things. probability to cause an international incident, and financial susceptibility to bribery and corruption

At root, or near it, this happens because it is incentivized to happen. The largest change needed is in the pay. Everything else technically then falls into place via market forces. Ballpark, 1/4 the # of cops & maybe 3x the pay would be about righthttps://twitter.com/AMK2934/status/1046474271965540352 …

A In a privately owned city state with high incomes this is not an issue. The incomes r high enough/crime rate low enough that highly paid police can work, and with high pay you can demand any kind of screening you want. But is places where the citizens are a net drain on revenue
