8. Unfortunately, the admin leave is part of the process

and of the Union contracts.
There are many reasons that someone in the police depts.might be in trouble and investigated, besides a shooting,
and the Admin. leave process allows time for a "fair" firing if needed.

4. I don't understand. Why even become a police office or stay a police officer if you hate blacks so

much?

If it is really that bad. Then move to Iceland or the Yukon or somewhere where you won't have to encounter a population you hate?

6. Because you enjoy fucking them over.

Being a police officer gives one many opportunities to do that.
