    If I'm dead wrong about this, then please enlighten me. I claim no expertise in how/why people do things.

    I don't think you actually heard my point, though.
    I heard your point.

    Your point was that you couldn't think as the cops do. I tried to help you think as the cops do.

    That's not my point.

    My point wasn't about how cops think; it's how the appearance of police brutality has been an ongoing issue which the police force / media have not effectively quelled. It's about how that appearance has been simmering in the background for decades and in past years it seems to be boiling to a head.

    You're point wasn't how cops think, it was how everyone else thinks. Why not sympathize with the cops?

    Exactly. Except it was presented as a guess. You make it like I'm claiming some expertise or like I'm saying this is how things "should" be.

    Are you seriously reading the sentence, "I'm not in favor of killing ANYONE w/o due process of law." and saying I lack sympathy?

    I assure you I do not lack sympathy for anyone who is facing difficulties which are only pressed upon them because someone else decided they were entitled to hand out bad days.
