    That’s a long way to say not much has changed.

    Okay, so four hugely publicized totally bullshit killings in one single year, after a consistent drumbeat of regular police killings every single year where any level of scrutiny would show that it was totally unnecessary brutality, followed by four years with a lot more scrutiny (in the form of activists, pretty much universal bodycams now, and media) exposing one total bullshit killing in the entire country. That to you is “not much”?

    You can disagree with me obviously. But you sound like you just totally ignored what I said, and wanted to repeat what you said again, as if I hadn’t said it, and then expand on it.

    I’ve just watched shit get worse and worse

    Most of it, yes. Police reform is one big type of reform that actually happened. Of course, if you don’t care about what happened and simply want to insist that you know everything is getting worse and worse, because it is, that’s your right to do, I guess.
