The left's war on to cops
In the left's ongoing war on the police, their plan to strip cops of qualified immunity is among the most preposterous. The sole objective is to jam up cops and make them more passive.
Qualified immunity means a police officer can't be sued for violating someone's constitutional rights unless those rights are "clearly established." Officers can still be fired. They can still be disciplined. And they can still be criminally prosecuted. They just can't be sued by every lowlife they arrest.
Liberals act as if qualified immunity is some extra-special benefit bestowed only on police, unheard of in any other line of work. Michigan's power-mad Attorney General Dana Nessel says, "We're not asking that police officers even be held to a higher standard than other professions, just to the same standard as other professions."
How about you, Dana? Can you be sued?
No, but that's different.
Indeed, the Michigan attorney general doesn't have mere "qualified immunity" from civil suits: She has absolute immunity. Unlike police officers, even if Nessel violates clearly established constitutional rights, she cannot be sued.
If Nessel is so hot to hold police "just to the same standard as other professions," how about holding them to the standard she's held to? Why does she get bonus immunity?
...
The left in this country has decided to be on the side of the criminals and not those who protect us from the criminals. They are siding with BLM a criminal support group that mostly raises hell when a black person is killed while resisting arrest. They appear indifferent to black-on-black crime which kills many more blacks than the cops ever have. It is remarkably easy to avoid being killed by a cop. Do not resist arrest and do not attack the officer. Submit to the arrest and have a lawyer appointed to defend you when you are jailed.
