The ubiquity of guns in America does make the prospect of policing there as a job rather unattractive to me
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh absolutely. There are some incident of pure evil, malice, incompetence et cetera. But we have to remember the environment in which they operate over there.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
My point is more imagine some of the nutters that job attracts with that level of danger
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A fair point too. I’m pretty sure the limited training is the biggest issue. Some states train their officers for such a short time and never again.

We do need to focus on society also though. As much as the police need more training, society needs to learn how to behave with the police. There will still be exceptions of course but incident like the last the other week could do with being lessons to teach the public rather than gathering around the notion of ‘defunding the police’ or ‘kill the bill’.

There should be similar outcry for people to comply more. At the point of being dealt with by the police, kicking up a fuss, disobeying, fighting back is only going to harm you, not help. Film / record / witness what you can and deal with any injustice afterwards.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I agree about the training but I don't think there is a lack of compliance or any similar thing from the public. I think police receive training on how to handle situations where people aren't complying.

The overwhelming majority of people cooperate with police, especially when sober. People can be more rebellious when on a night out drinking with the boys or when intoxicated in any other way.

So the incidents of failing to cooperate are not as common as you might think. It's not an epidemic of non compliance. I don't think there should be an outcry about compliance. The incidences that gain prominence and reported in media are those where something out of the ordinary happens.

Guy on drugs doesn't listen to police and ends up dead. If police handle it differently it doesn't even make the news.

The only way it is a good idea but without problems is to provide photo ID free of charge and give people a year to get that done. If they do that then there’s no argument to be had. I doubt it’s worth spending the millions that would cost to avoid the presumably low number of voter fraud we have here.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You've been here, SatNav. Have you ever seen our Carte Soleil medicare card. Picture ID you produce at hospitals, clinics, and doctors offices. Or pay up front then try to get refund from gov.
These are legit ID for buying weed too.

The laws are a little loose

Uh huh, I agree. I also think in many ways private surveillance is more concerning, nevertheless it is a transactional agreement not a legally compelled one and Apple has pivoted significantly to being pro consumer privacy for a reason. It is likely to be the case Google will also be compelled that way.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It’s a transactional agreement that is deliberately misleading and not fully advertising what people are agreeing to.
Governments have access to this data and whilst you might turn your smart phone off whilst not using it, I suspect that you use whilst on the move a fair bit and even if you don’t, millions of people who also make the same concerns over surveillance and bopping around with their smartphone using it 16/7.

My point is that long gone are the days that most people cannot be tracked & traced. Everything you ever type into your phone or PC is logged somewhere, VPNs, AVG, peerblocker, wiping history and cookies doesn’t really achieve much when concerned about state surveillance and monitoring.

I mean, if they say the guy was on drugs then no wonder he didn't comply with police. Doesn't mean the cops can take liberties. That's the job, dealing with such.

When you become a policeman you know it's not an easy job and you'll encounter people on drugs and sheet. You know this beforehand.

NPE, do you have a suitcase of money and only deal in cash? Are you the guy from Blacklist?
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Not quite, but I don’t do online banking for privacy reasons for example.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Oh you’re one of those. If someone wants your info, they can get it easily. Unless you have some seriously sensitive information, I really don’t see the big deal.

Showing ID when coming to vote. How is this not a thing already should be the question!!!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ah so you are in favour of mandatory id cards?

Should every citizen should have one?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
We need ID to vote in NI...
Electoral card and passport or D Licence.

Shiftless and dodgy bastirts, so proper order.

Actually no, I find smartphone use on the go to be a really bad habit,
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ok but I’d imagine that even turned off, you’re still being monitored. In fact I’d be very confident with that assertion.

Maybe you should switch to pay as you go mate, that would help I think.

Its actually quite easy to activate someone's camera without them knowing.

You can buy a camera cover for a webcam, or one with one on very easily, or just use tape. I do.

Omg do you? What kind of journalism are you actually into?
