That leaves the big and for the near future question of whether the Police Unions (which are VERY strong) are going to fight "tooth +nail" for ALL their members-right or wrong. The Atlanta shooting appears to be an overreach for one so-called "bad apple", or at best an over-zealous apple. Remember, society's attitudes change and there seems to be a power shift FROM less adversarial Policingmethods toward a softer, citizen's safety 1st, community uplifting attitude nationwide.
So police union work slowdowns are causing more shootings in NYC?

I'm sure a softer citizens safety community uplifting approach will have the great results seen in CHAZ.
