That's because police presented as reformers still abstain from recognizing and publicly characterizing the most vicious acts perpetrated upon the citizenry, and thus our republic.
Madison, Milwaukee and Minneapolis instruct.
The Madison Police and Fire Commission decided to reject the advice of human rights groups, and instead selected a new police chief in open defiance of community concerns of racism, and perceived adversarial posture of cops and police unions (The Capital Times, Community Response Team, Madison Wisconsin (Facebook)).
In Milwaukee, a corrupt judge, Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Christopher Foley, reversed the Milwaukee Police and Fire Commission's decision to demote an authoritarian Police Chief, Alfonso Morales.
Morales is threatening federal litigation to get as much money out of Milwaukee tax-payers as possible, a pursuit joined by police political forces bleeding the beleaguered city best known for segregation and criminal police (Racine Journal-Times).
In Minneapolis, the new police chief, Medaria Arradondo, says he want to build trust between cops and the very community that cops have abused, but says nothing about making the department worthy of that trust (Minneapolis Star-Tribune).
Arradondo calls the George Floyd suffocation murder at the hands of racist cops, "tragic," writing "in the wake of the tragic death of George Floyd ... ."
This passive-voice noting of a police killing reads as though George Floyd died at the hands of benign, third-party circumstances, and not the murderous organization Arradondo has led since 2017.
Arradondo does not take responsibility for what these cops did or acknowledge his own role in cultivating the human garbage in blue.
Meanwhile, in Madison retired Madison Police Chief Noble Wray has been picked by the Democrat Wisconsin Attorney General Josh Kaul to determine if the racist Kenosha cop Rusten Sheskey's shooting Jacob S. Blake seven times in the back merits criminal charges, after reviewing the Dept of Justice investigation by cops, for cops, (Wisconsin DoJ).
Not one of these administrative cops have any moral authority. Not one has accurately described what police have become in American society: Murder clubs, and right-wing political machines feasting on the community with violence.
The time for reforming police is over.
One step away from the unacceptable status quo is a new policy mandating that cops will not administer cops locally, and will not investigate cops for the simple reasons that cops cannot be trusted, should not be trusted.
Only civilians with records of human rights and civil liberties work are capable of stopping this brutal and violent force that tries to emulate a military organizational force and views citizens as objects.
