“Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power.” -Abraham Lincoln
Unfortunately we live in a society in which we all have access to an abundance of information at the disposal of a quick search in the web. It is unfortunate because we are all exposed to a high risk of viewing what is going on in the world, and most of what goes on isn't all funny reactions and cats pooping out rainbows. We are exposed to seeing the dark side of humanity. Murders, killing sprees, bombings, overall scaremongering but police killing innocent people? Now that's when you start to cross the line.
If anyone would come up to me and strike up a conversation about the police, not to anyones surprise, i do not genualy trust the police or even like them. Now i'm not saying i absolutely hate the police, it's just hard to trust police when police are people just like you and me. That is what makes me have a general disdain for police. There are good and bad police officers in this country but in my opinion that should change.
Police reform should be in order after the events of many innocent people getting affected by the flawed system of recruiting police. If anyone is to hold power there should not be an easy way to get it. Psychological tests should start to become the norm for people who hold this much power in everyday life. Not everyone is a good person in the force. From first hand experience most officers of the law are usually very judgemental, somehow racist, and overall not very intelligent.
The police are not the only things that need to change. We all need to change who we are ourselves. We've all been through hardship, we all have our own stories. Most of the hate in the world is stemmed from ignorance and arrogance. In reality when you go down to the stem of why our world is so corrupt, it is because our role models are corrupt. Our parents, our teachers, our media. What we all view from our perspective is corruption.
What needs to change is the way we raise the youth. What we teach our youth about what is right and wrong and you don't need a religion to actually to know what is right and wrong. Our education system overall needs to change. If we do not change the way we educate our children they will turn into a replica of our own problematic generation. After all the youth is our future. Education is the key to humanity progressing and we all need to help humanity progress, we are all human so we all need to contribute.
