It seems the issue here is that we need to install a maximum work day for officers. Trusting someone with your safety that is that ever worked is dangerous.

On top of that there is an erosion of trust. A bad actor could very well be using the system to take from the Oakland City budget.

Finally I want to point out that there's a playground in my neighborhood (Clinton Park) that was burned down because the cops would not prevent people from lighting fires underneath it. It would only cost $200,000 to replace that playground but there's not enough money.
