  • As a Californian, do not look to our state for police reform. IMO the best example is Colorado removing qualified immunity. Discipline doesn’t work and the system refuses to jail their own, so you gotta hit them financially. Bankrupting shitty little town police forces either forces reform or kicks authority up to the state, which is more regimented in its regulation. Either way it’s putting bad cops out of a job.

    Honestly legal immunity needs to go as a concept. It might be annoying for judges to fight off lawsuits, but fuckem. They’re paid damn well and they have the time. Judges are public servants, not public sovereigns. Some of them need to be reminded of this fact, and lawsuits are a good way of opening crusty conservative eyes. And the entire civil suit system needs to be simplified into plain English so that the average citizen can use it. This legalese fuckery was designed from the start to disadvantage uneducated people. That’s downright un-American. The ruling class has forgotten that this is the land of the free, not the land of the fee.
