One thing is the low level of educational attainment required for cops in the US.<p>Some US police train only few weeks. Others just few months. In most European countries they train for years before they can go to the street. Selecting people who don&#x27;t manage to get education to carry a gun makes different culture than requiring high school bachelors degree. Trained professionals vs. incompetent bunch of dropouts.<p>FBI seems to be more in line with what you would expect from a cop on a street in developed world

Call a spade a spade: how the police <i>murdered</i> Breonna Taylor.<p>So frustrating that so many American&#x27;s just accept that the police force here has become what the Judge Dredd comic satirized: judge, jury and executioners.

Being a cop is basically an unskilled position with a risk profile that is significantly under that of a pizza delivery person. Rotten departments should be fired outright and rehired from scratch. The only union in America that needs to stop existing is the police union.

tl;dr No one knew they were cops - no neighbors, no one. Then they did things wrong, panicked, and blasted the apartment to pieces.<p>Oh yeah, and then they just let her bleed to death.
