Can you spin this thought out a little more? Do you think cops have gotten LESS power over the last 10 years? Do you believe their unions suddenly stopped being some of the strongest political forces?

Also, cops make about 15K more than the average job(1) and that's because they're EXTREMELY well compensated in blue-states (presumably where they are made to wash the most feet?). They also still have their qualified immunity, so it's not like it's gotten that much harder to "do the job". Violent crime has been trending down for decades(2). There has not been a massive spike in "crazed chaos in the streets" people just think there is because reasons.

Nah dude, hold cops accountable. Just like any other public servant.
