Episode 47

When a veteran of the Brooklyn Center, Minnesota police force confused her taser for a pistol and shot an unarmed black man, the fiery cries for defunding police received more fuel. The bodycam footage seems to indicate a genuine mistake, but protestors are convinced of malicious intent. What does this mean for the argument to defund police, particularly for citizens who do not support defunding the police? Is there any margin for error when imperfect people are called to wear the uniform and perform difficult jobs? Does it matter that the decedent was resisting arrest? Join us on this episode of the Removing Barriers podcast where we explore these questions and more with returning guest and police officer, Officer CigarBro.
