We hire, and train, terrible cops in America.

They are basically Reveune Collectors.

I would like to see all cops under federal jurisdiction. Let the FBI train them.

I know in my county of Marin we have way to many just looking for any slight moving violation.

I have felt for awhile that we also need complete bans in certain kinds of tech.

With the exception of always on cop cameras.

Exactly, there's a reason the FBI takes over real criminal cases when they occur - the police are just there to settle petty, inconsequential local disputes.

Inconsequential to you. Consequential to those people involved. Jesus Christ dude not everything revolves only around you or your concerns.
