Will it ever be possible
To get police departments to actually just be politically neutral, non-bigoted public service agencies? Will it ever be possible to demilitarize the police and have just arrest people who commit violent acts and, if possible, to defuse situations without resorting to violence?

I'd like to think we could reach a place where the police departments STOP trying to be some kind of Municipal Conservative Army. Why does this seem to be asking too much?
