    As I said in another thread, who the fuck is opposed to extrajudicial killings? Police need to be able to kill to keep us safe. Also, I need a lot of guns.

      Nobody is forbidding police to kill. They are making it illegal for anyone else than the police to investigate if the killing they do was justified. And this is wrong. Investigating one self is bad. Making it the only method is even worse

      Wait wait, maybe they have a point. Since the whole point of civilian oversight was to stop angry mob justice maybe this means they want the stupidly heavily armed general populous to bring back traditional mob justice. I mean whats the worst that can happen when the most armed people in the world distrust the police to this degree?
