Unions generally protect workers from exploitation. Problem with police unions is they’re not just regular employees and their unions fight for less oversight.
@@dagothhyde7297 Not anymore. Unions have become obsolete. My biggest problem with unions is that they take ownership of the worker's labor away from them. No one should be forced to pay into a union for employment.
But, doctors don't usually lose their license when they mess up, and they don't go to prison. They do get sued, but insurance companies got the laws re-written in the late 90's to make it very hard to get much money from suing a doctor.
Im an ER doc. If i were to make a serious mistake, you can bet your bottom dollar im not getting hired again in an ER, thats before i get sued and my license revoked.
Doctors errors kill 250 000 people a year In the US alone.... quarter of a million. That’s a lot!!! Cops are constantly disciplined for bad things... media doesn’t ever tell this.

@@Panthersigma It's been proven that when a good cop turns in a bad corrupt cop, the entire force rallies behind the bad cop and the good cop is the pariah that the whole force turns their back on. This thin blue line bullshit is the problem. The community that the police police are not the enemy, it's the idea that cops are in a war against crime and everyone who isn't a cop is a enemy combatant. This is the problem with policing in America today. When cops are afraid to turn other cops in for their bad or criminal actions because they will be retaliated against and possibly lose their jobs or lives, who would do the right thing when those are the consequences?
@@blahblah8037 never said you shouldnt, in fact what i was saying was that people will do whatever they want to do despite the state prohibiting it so its stupid to go against it, ofcourse when it comes down to prostitution and drugs not anything else
@Jim Jones "I believe that when police commit crimes they should be punished, the same as everyone else" This. The whole foundation for the justice system in the west is that justice is blind - it doesn't matter if you're rich, poor, black, white, citizen, police etc, EVERYONE are equal in the eyes of the law. And the fact that cops frequently get away with this shit, despite there being very vlear evidence, suggest that there is just something wrong with the system. That being said though, you only need to read 2 pages of world history to realize that defunding the police is a very, VERY bad idea
@Jim Jones That part. I believe the police should be paid more but held to a higher standard. If it’s a clear as a day where a cop killed or committed a crime then the punishment should be raised to 150%. Instead 10 years in prison make it 15.
Fred Neck could I have done better then murdering unarmed people , I’m sure I could. We aren’t talking about the good cops here , we are talking about the bad ones. Pretty simple concept.
@Fred Neck So ? Ok it's hard to make good decisions, but if you fuck up to the point of shooting someone who shouldn't have been shot then it doesn't matter. You kill someone, you go to jail. Simple as that.
it's about people having accountability for their actions. Cops seem to get off extremely lightly when someone is murdered.. "i thought he was reaching for a gun so I shot him" routine is getting stale. The idea that after a board hearing at the precint they would be given a paid leave is laughable while the victims family will never get to see their family member again due to a cop's inept ability to properly read the situation, and a lack of psycho-awareness of constantly thinking the perp is going to shoot them.
Nobody wants to tackle the root of why the standards have gotten lower for decades. Combined with low pay and loss of all respect for cops I dont know why people are surprised at quality of law enforcement in this country.
Hardly a surprise when large parts of the population seem to see all cops as scum of the earth. It's not a very appealing career when you're putting your life on the line, receiving fairly poor pay, and get very little respect from your community.

I typically watch videos at 2x speed to save time on my lunch breaks, but listening to Ben Shapiro on 2x is like holding a microphone to a hummingbirds wings.

more than 90% of all internal affairs excessive force complaints are filed by police officers against other police officers. Your narrative does not conform with reality or the data.
Alex Magnus thank you! So many people seem to ignore this fact. The reality is that the police unions protect those cops that are being investigated by IA. Also, the ones that report the bad cops often end up being retaliated against by the unions
It’s gonna end up like Gotham over there, joe will use his Spotify money to get Young Jamie to build him a batmanesque suit and he police the city. Screw it, Shapiro can evolve into Joker
Fellow Kentuckian here - I totally agree with you. I also worked in the school system for a while and it really is a mindset that perforates regardless of us being more western KY. I think we have a cultural problem. Yes there are exceptions who have their head on straight and a good mindset for their future, but the majority break my heart.
Or abolish qualified immunity and the police unions. If a nurse give a person the wrong medicine and killed them, that nurse will go the Medical Board get their license stripped from them. Same with a surgeon/ doctor who mess up a procedure kill somebody on the table. How about we hold law enforcement to the same level that we hold medical professionals.
Is that a fair comparison? Nurses and surgeons deal with sick people. Cops deal with suspects and criminals. Nurses don't risk their own lives, cops do. Now I'm not saying cops shouldn't be held responsible. Just comparing those two groups seems odd to me.
Qualified immunity only applies to civil lawsuits, it has absolutely nothing to do with criminal justice. also, the courts have consistently ruled that when police violate somebody's rights they surrender their qualified immunity. You seem like you don't really know what qualified immunity is.
You're not taking into account that all doctors are required to maintain liability insurance in order to practice. They pay a large amount of money out-of-pocket for multimillion dollar policies to protect their licenses. It's fairly hard for a doctor to lose their license to practice.
You really must not know about how "Accountable" Healthcare killers are held. There's a reason they rack up the most numbers out of all serial killer demographics. As you may have a lone wolf serial killer and it's crazy for him to rack up double digit victims... Like them getting 20 is horrifying. Whereas it's not even unusual for Healthcare Killers to be knocking on triple digits, or even higher. One doctor had 292. That they know of. Oddly, they're usually women, though. Basically, once there's actual evidence of their wrongdoing, they're fired, as bringing in the police solicits the probability of class action lawsuits... Did John's uncle Larry really die of cardiac arrest in his sleep, or was there foul play? So all of said killer's patient files went get blown open and if they'd been there for at least a year... That's a major problem. Then, they move to a different city and apply to another hospital/clinic/etc, where they can rinse and repeat again and again, as law prohibits someone checking up on a work history for a potential candidate, from asking why they were fired, they can only ask questions verifying that what was on the resume is in fact factual and accurate. If they bother calling in the first place. Which is kind of ironic, given that should a nurse or someone screw the pooch, that one time, then yes, they're put before a board and such. My point is that the "accountability" you claim to want is why Healthcare killers slip through at such a rate to produce triple digit victims. That's probably not the accountability you're looking for with police.
You know, Nazis had the same fear. And worse than just losing their job. If you are just following orders then you followed abhorrent orders non the less. The police are asked to do too much by our politicians. They are not rehab specialist. They are not therapists. They should not be allowed to disrespect the public.
This is the way a discussion should actually be. Two people, that don't agree on everything, but can speak civilly to each other and find common ground. How hard is that? Seriously.
The problem is that most people have an ego problem. And when you disagree with them, their ego takes a hit and they go into a rage. "They don't agree with ME?" And then it spirals. Joe and Ben are awesome, two people who have their beliefs but know that every person is different and they accept that. They are secure in their knowledge and their opinion enough not to be offended by someone disagreeing.
The first change they need to make is in upper management. When you have higher ups telling their officers if you see a fellow officer do something “bad” don’t say anything no wonder so many of these “good” cops don’t say anything. Any time a stand up cop comes out against an officer in his department their fired immediately.
I’ve never personally seen or heard of this going on and happening though my twenty plus year’s of being in and around dozens of law enforcement agencies.
N Odak here’s a link to a story of a cop getting fired for stopping a choke hold www.cityandstateny.com/articles/policy/criminal-justice/black-buffalo-cop-stopped-another-officers-chokehold-she-was-fired other officers have been fired who support BLM or have stopped other officers from committing violence
I have been around cops most of my life growing up in So. California. I never met a cop who worked the prominently poor black sections of Los Angeles, like Watts who didn't say the same things about going into places like Watts. The generally concensive among cops was, no matter why you went into Watts to help someone, because of the robbery, home invasion, drug dealing, rape or murder, the young black men and women treated them like they were dirt. The people who lived in this area wouldn't do anything to help the cops find who was guilty of the crime. It was like the residences would rather let a local, get away even with murder than help the cops who were there trying to help. I would imagine that some of these cops began to hate trying to help the black residences of places like Watts.
Don’t you just love it when people paint cops with these broad strokes of these savior complexes and don’t actually portray the full story of police unions or militarization. The 1994 crime bill propelled the war on drugs, disproportionately putting cops in black and brown neighborhoods, which also involved laws to be put in place like stop and frisk that criminalized black and brown communities 3x more for drugs even though whites and blacks use these same drugs at the same rate. The 1994 crime bill along with the 1033 crime bill is what radicalized police training to militarization where cops train in military tactics making them more violent and focusing on 110 hours of fire arms and defense vs only 8 hours of de-escalation and mediation. Police brutality settlements continue to rise with currently the top 10 police departments paying out 240 million dollars in police brutality settlements every year with tax payer dollars. Which prevents cops from facing legal consequences when the pay away brutality away and along with currupt laws like qualified immunity less than 5% of cops who ingage in currupt or abusive behavior ever face legal consequences. And even before militarization there were a cases like the Central Park 5 in the 70’s that went under raps for decades of cops abusing their power and pinning cases on minorities. Los angelos is the 2nd highest city who pays the most in police brutality settlements to cover up crime and New York is number 1. Maybe just maybe there’s so much distrust because plethora of cops have abused their power in minorities and they rarely face consequences because things like blue wall of shield and settlements. Maybe just maybe these cops have been in these unions for decades, not facing consequences but and abusing their civilians. Like joe and Ben said if you have 100 good cops and 30 bad cops but the 100 good cops don’t do anything about the 30 bad cops you have 130 bad cops.
You got it backwards. The resentment started with the black community towards cops. Cops for decades and decades abused and mistreated black people Pre -Civil rights. Even tho things are better now and cops aren’t inherently and blatantly racist, these cops are today are suffering from the transgressions of their predecessors. Do the some research on how ruthless the LAPD was in the 70’s and 80’s. This disdain from both sides didn’t start with black people, it started with the police. And that hate and distrust the police get is very well earned. It’s up to Police to gain the respect and trust back, not black people.
Also, within these poor communities are a code of honor or a code of silence. Many people don't want to come forward with information in fear of retaliation.
Long stoner rant forgive me: I’ve got a friend who is a cop and I know he is a good guy with a good heart, so I know there are cops out there that really want to help people and keep them safe, however he’s told me if you speak out against another officer or a superior for questionable behavior you run the risk of being punished or demoted to a lesser role. We need to protect the good cops and weed out the guys who are just on a power trip. Also, it should be illegal for an officer to turn off his body cam or tamper with it to obfuscate evidence. The black bagging in Portland should make us all very uncomfortable regardless of where you stand politically. As a lefty I wouldn’t stand for right wingers being kidnapped who were peacefully protesting and exercising their constitutional rights. And if you believe the people being grabbed are actual criminals I would point to the 700+ videos of police attacking non violent protesters all aggregated into a twitter thread that you won’t see on any main stream news network. Over 20% of Americans are unemployed and 32% can’t afford their house payments/rent and yet the corporations are suddenly big fans of socialism and get bailed out by the government with money seemingly pulled out of thin air. But when it comes time to help working folks the politicians want to talk about the deficit all of a sudden. Even though trump is trying to cut taxes for the rich yet again. The media will try to divide us to ensure we are politically impotent, we need solidarity across the working class in the country and we need to demand change from our politicians or kick their ass out of office. It’s time to end for-profit policing and prisons in this country.
I get all that but, the people being "kidnapped" as you put it, are not just "peaceful protesters. These are people who have committed arson, theft, violence, and vandalism. If the mayors of these cities are not willing to have the police remove these people from the protests, do you just keep letting them destroy peoples businesses, drive people away from downtown areas, and generally disrupt the lives of people just trying to work and go about their daily activities?

I trust a cop who studies martial arts more than someone who doesn’t because they are far more confident to take care of a situation without feeling the need to pull out the gun. These lazy cops don’t want to diffuse the situation at all and would rather take it to the extreme with a gun.
These cops are dangerous exactly someone said they should show up and de-escalate I remember my uncles got in a fight when I was young and I asked my mom why not call the cops she said to me because they don’t need to get involved with a family issue they make things worse and I saw for myself cops just go crazy for no reason instead of trying to figure something out lazy cops
Armando Rios are you saying the cops who are trained in martial arts are dangerous because that is inaccurate for the most part the cops who are skilled in martial arts are much calmer and less likely to go to there tool belt and more likely to deescalate and handle the situating without a gun or taser

I had a lady cop in my hometown give me a parking ticket when I was legally allowed to park there until midnight, it was 10pm when she wrote the ticket. I went down stairs right away once I seen her put it on my car and when I said I'm legally parked here for 2 more hours, she said "I dont give a damn, take it up in court" I took a picture of the sign, went to court and she didnt show up. And people wonder why cops aren't trusted
Last year while riding my bike to work at night I get pulled over by 2 cops who noticed that I didn't have lights on my bike. So, I'm given 2 tickets not 1, for no lights/reflectors & 1 for no audible signal. Mind you, my bike did have reflectors, that shit didn't matter to them. And no audible signal ?? Guess I needed a horn. Bullshit. Ok, lights on a bike at night, I get it, but to write me a ticket, really ? I was out of the house 3 minutes ! Traveled 5 blocks ! And in truth, MY MOUTH IS MY AUDIBLE SIGNAL ALL DAY LONG ! 3 Months later in Zoom court, a prosecutor tosses out both tickets, judge accepts. It ain't all bad, but that crap was not necessary to begin with. Guess there's not enough crime in this city until you don't have lights & a horn at night. The country we live in.
@John Katz it's unfortunate that as a lawyer Ben doesn't know this and didn't point it out, but federal courts have been consistently whittling away at when and where qualified immunity applies for the last 2 years. In my opinion it needs to be whittled away even further, but there has been significance progress. if you want to learn about it I strongly recommend a UA-cam channel called "Uncivil law", he is a lawyer who reads Court decisions and analyzes them, he has a bunch of videos on qualified immunity and he is very critical of qualified immunity in general
@@thetavibes9021 no, I never said anything remotely close to that. Re-read my comment, then try again. I was making the point that as a lawyer Ben Shapiro should have pointed out that there has been significant progress on the issues around qualified immunity, but he did not do that. he also did not point out that qualified immunity only applies to civil cases, not criminal cases, nor did he point out that police surrender any claim to qualified immunity when they violate somebody's constitutional rights. I was advocating for a more informative and nuanced discussion.
@@micfail2 "It's unfortunate that as a lawyer Ben doesn't know this and didn't point it out." My simple question to what I thought was a separate statement would of sufficed with a simple "No."

“The biggest factor in terms of lack of faith in police from citizens is the media” This is the exactly true and applies in far more than just faith in law enforcement.
The media has apparently made it their goal in life to have us lose faith in every American institution. Just to sell advertising, with no regard to the damage they are doing to the country.
The cops wouldn’t make it so easy to lose faith in them if they stopped escalating situations, killing minorities, and brutalizing protesters while decked out like COD cosplay
Nope. The biggest factor in terms of lack of faith in police is the advent of camera phones. For years, all we've had to go on with these interactions were the stories of the men involved; the police and the alleged criminal. And who wouldn't take the word of a respected officer over an accused criminal? But now we have video evidence of each of these incidents and trust in police is dropping because of what we are seeing recorded on tape. The police have no one but themselves to blame for the way the world sees them now.
I do agree with most of the stuff Ben Shapiro says. I think the media is trying to portray him as stupid because they don’t want him to ruin the narrative they are pushing down our throats.
I agree with a lot of the stuff that he says, which one of the things he has said (and other people have) is that you don't have to hate someone if they disagree with you, which I wish more people were like that. It's okay if we don't agree on something, we can both still be polite to each other...even if you like pineapple on your pizza, I'll still be your friend.

I don't like it, but I don't think it should be illegal. I also am not going to hate someone because they think it's 100% okay or if they think it's 100% not okay. We can have different opinions and take different routes and still live good lives. I would rather be nice and respectful to someone for the thousands of reasons we agree on and get along, rather than be enemies over one thing we don't.
That's what it should be but it hasn't become that. It's basically given a free pass to police officers who are doing things within their job that don't fall in the parameters of the scope of what they're legitimately allowed to do in their job and not be sued for it.
I am a liberal and have many disagreement with Shapiro's ideology but what he said makes perfect sense. I wish Conservatives and Liberals could have more reasonable discussions like this that two sides could learn from each other, instead of bashing each other.
Don't you just love discussions and debates without labeling your opponent as racist or other derogatory terms? I wish we would uphold these strategies more on social media.
@Ed Koskosk that’s pretty ironic considering that Ben operates entire on his feelings and pushes away facts that don’t fit his worldview. In this episode he claims that spending more money on the police in improvised black communities will help them. But in a 2018 study from the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of the America found that Militarization fails to enhance police safety or reduce crime but may harm police reputation. Police militarization does not lead to a decrease in crimes committed or officer injuries, it actually increases both. Police militarization (including the adoption of SWAT teams) decreases public trust in police, which contributes to increases in crime. Militarized police are disproportionately deployed in African American communities, even when accounting for crime rates. But Ben still thinks it’s a good idea to throw more police in black communities because he ignores the consensus that the police have a massive racial bias, but you would miss that if you got your data from Ben ;)
Basic business principle: You want better cops then you need better candidates and to get that you have to treat cops better. More training, more time off the streets for recovery, better pay, etc. Who the hell wants to sign up to be a cop right now? And why would they?
The us also needs more training for cops. I think it‘s only like 6 month until you become a cop. It should be way more, like 2 years. Every other job in the world has longer learning periods, i think that would really weed out all the candidates that do it only to get power
This is why the cries for defunding the police are moronic. When you slash police budgets, the first thing thing to be slashed is going to be pay. If you reduce the pay, then the only people who will be willing to be a police officer are the psychopaths and sociopaths who would want to be police no matter what the pay is, because of the feeling of power it gives them. Speaking of basic business principles, the best thing to do to reform the police is to completely outlaw police unions. Having a union for a government job is completely nonsensical. Imagine if there were a Senator's Union or Representative's Union.
Geoffrey Wilson They need therapy. They are extremely traumatized by the nature of their job and that trauma comes out in their interactions with the public.
These people saying unions are the problem have clearly never dealt with municipal governments. They would pay cops $15 an hour and spend the rest on inflated contacts for their cronie buddies. Unions make sure cops don't get fired for being unpopular.

J R how can it be better when the data can say whatever you want it to say? Real life experience vs choosing whichever data supports your argument. Talk to anyone who studies analytics. You will here the same.
The “data” does not need to be mountainous when the statistics represent violent incidents. Oppression does not need to be widespread. That’s what the phrase “making an example” infers. My father only had to spank me a handful of times for it to be effective.
@Harry Paul Im not sure this is exactly what hes saying but its my interpretation. If you see people who look like you routinely being profiled and (in some cases killed for no real reason) by the people who are in power over you, its going to make you change your behaviour. Whether that change is to avoid police or just not trust them at all. It doesnt need to be happening everyday, just enough for you to notice that it is happening. Just like his dad spanking him, it only needs to be occassional to seriously alter the way youre thinking
I’m a huge progressive and some points Ben made are actually valid. The reform of unions and the curving and rework of qualified immunity are things I think make sense.
Two of my favorite people. Thanks for the video. Couldn't agree more with your observations. Thanks. Appreciated. Policing? We need to consider how to get from policing 2.0 to policing 3.0.
The idea of “defund the police” is to redirecting some of the money that goes to the police into education both of the citizens and of the police officers themselves and health care centers. Better education and access to health clinics leads to lower crime rates. Defunding the police is one of the only ways to lower crime rates.

Police Unions protect the wrong cops, that’s a huge problem.

Unions in general protect bad employees
Unions generally protect workers from exploitation. Problem with police unions is they’re not just regular employees and their unions fight for less oversight.
@@dagothhyde7297 Not anymore. Unions have become obsolete. My biggest problem with unions is that they take ownership of the worker's labor away from them. No one should be forced to pay into a union for employment.
Because unions are like a dictatorship
Accountability. If a doctor messes up, he gets sued and loses license. Same principles.
Not exactly, I know plenty of doctors that were crooked and still kept their jobs
Malpractice insurance
But, doctors don't usually lose their license when they mess up, and they don't go to prison. They do get sued, but insurance companies got the laws re-written in the late 90's to make it very hard to get much money from suing a doctor.

FACTS
police is just an extension of the entire country. irresponsible behaviour could be america's slogan.
Except it leads to deaths of innocent or non violent criminals...
That’s true but the idiots complaining now are just playing victim
When even good cops are afraid to turn in their dirty coworkers (for fear of retribution) the whole system is broken.
A good cop who is afraid to turn in a dirty cop is not a good cop
@@Panthersigma It's been proven that when a good cop turns in a bad corrupt cop, the entire force rallies behind the bad cop and the good cop is the pariah that the whole force turns their back on. This thin blue line bullshit is the problem. The community that the police police are not the enemy, it's the idea that cops are in a war against crime and everyone who isn't a cop is a enemy combatant. This is the problem with policing in America today. When cops are afraid to turn other cops in for their bad or criminal actions because they will be retaliated against and possibly lose their jobs or lives, who would do the right thing when those are the consequences?
The system isn't broken, its working perfectly. You better do some research on reality and who runs things.

Here’s the deal. It’s not about criminals going to jail for their crimes , it’s about the police not going to jail for theirs......full stop
@Jim Jones "I believe that when police commit crimes they should be punished, the same as everyone else"
This. The whole foundation for the justice system in the west is that justice is blind - it doesn't matter if you're rich, poor, black, white, citizen, police etc, EVERYONE are equal in the eyes of the law. And the fact that cops frequently get away with this shit, despite there being very vlear evidence, suggest that there is just something wrong with the system.
That being said though, you only need to read 2 pages of world history to realize that defunding the police is a very, VERY bad idea
@Jim Jones That part. I believe the police should be paid more but held to a higher standard. If it’s a clear as a day where a cop killed or committed a crime then the punishment should be raised to 150%. Instead 10 years in prison make it 15.
Fred Neck could I have done better then murdering unarmed people , I’m sure I could. We aren’t talking about the good cops here , we are talking about the bad ones. Pretty simple concept.
@Fred Neck So ? Ok it's hard to make good decisions, but if you fuck up to the point of shooting someone who shouldn't have been shot then it doesn't matter. You kill someone, you go to jail. Simple as that.
it's about people having accountability for their actions. Cops seem to get off extremely lightly when someone is murdered.. "i thought he was reaching for a gun so I shot him" routine is getting stale. The idea that after a board hearing at the precint they would be given a paid leave is laughable while the victims family will never get to see their family member again due to a cop's inept ability to properly read the situation, and a lack of psycho-awareness of constantly thinking the perp is going to shoot them.

It definitely varies from agency to agency, city’s and states have their own way of setting “the bar” too.
The bar to become a parent is even lower.
Nobody wants to tackle the root of why the standards have gotten lower for decades. Combined with low pay and loss of all respect for cops I dont know why people are surprised at quality of law enforcement in this country.

The last minute about Appalachia was spot on. Being raised in easy KY and also being a veteran and police officer, this hit the button!
Fellow Kentuckian here - I totally agree with you. I also worked in the school system for a while and it really is a mindset that perforates regardless of us being more western KY. I think we have a cultural problem. Yes there are exceptions who have their head on straight and a good mindset for their future, but the majority break my heart.
Or abolish qualified immunity and the police unions. If a nurse give a person the wrong medicine and killed them, that nurse will go the Medical Board get their license stripped from them. Same with a surgeon/ doctor who mess up a procedure kill somebody on the table. How about we hold law enforcement to the same level that we hold medical professionals.
Is that a fair comparison? Nurses and surgeons deal with sick people. Cops deal with suspects and criminals. Nurses don't risk their own lives, cops do. Now I'm not saying cops shouldn't be held responsible. Just comparing those two groups seems odd to me.
Qualified immunity only applies to civil lawsuits, it has absolutely nothing to do with criminal justice. also, the courts have consistently ruled that when police violate somebody's rights they surrender their qualified immunity. You seem like you don't really know what qualified immunity is.
You're not taking into account that all doctors are required to maintain liability insurance in order to practice. They pay a large amount of money out-of-pocket for multimillion dollar policies to protect their licenses. It's fairly hard for a doctor to lose their license to practice.
You really must not know about how "Accountable" Healthcare killers are held. There's a reason they rack up the most numbers out of all serial killer demographics. As you may have a lone wolf serial killer and it's crazy for him to rack up double digit victims... Like them getting 20 is horrifying. Whereas it's not even unusual for Healthcare Killers to be knocking on triple digits, or even higher. One doctor had 292. That they know of. Oddly, they're usually women, though.
Basically, once there's actual evidence of their wrongdoing, they're fired, as bringing in the police solicits the probability of class action lawsuits... Did John's uncle Larry really die of cardiac arrest in his sleep, or was there foul play? So all of said killer's patient files went get blown open and if they'd been there for at least a year... That's a major problem.
Then, they move to a different city and apply to another hospital/clinic/etc, where they can rinse and repeat again and again, as law prohibits someone checking up on a work history for a potential candidate, from asking why they were fired, they can only ask questions verifying that what was on the resume is in fact factual and accurate. If they bother calling in the first place.
Which is kind of ironic, given that should a nurse or someone screw the pooch, that one time, then yes, they're put before a board and such. My point is that the "accountability" you claim to want is why Healthcare killers slip through at such a rate to produce triple digit victims. That's probably not the accountability you're looking for with police.

Good work!
I have been around cops most of my life growing up in So. California. I never met a cop who worked the prominently poor black sections of Los Angeles, like Watts who didn't say the same things about going into places like Watts. The generally concensive among cops was, no matter why you went into Watts to help someone, because of the robbery, home invasion, drug dealing, rape or murder, the young black men and women treated them like they were dirt. The people who lived in this area wouldn't do anything to help the cops find who was guilty of the crime. It was like the residences would rather let a local, get away even with murder than help the cops who were there trying to help. I would imagine that some of these cops began to hate trying to help the black residences of places like Watts.
Don’t you just love it when people paint cops with these broad strokes of these savior complexes and don’t actually portray the full story of police unions or militarization. The 1994 crime bill propelled the war on drugs, disproportionately putting cops in black and brown neighborhoods, which also involved laws to be put in place like stop and frisk that criminalized black and brown communities 3x more for drugs even though whites and blacks use these same drugs at the same rate. The 1994 crime bill along with the 1033 crime bill is what radicalized police training to militarization where cops train in military tactics making them more violent and focusing on 110 hours of fire arms and defense vs only 8 hours of de-escalation and mediation. Police brutality settlements continue to rise with currently the top 10 police departments paying out 240 million dollars in police brutality settlements every year with tax payer dollars. Which prevents cops from facing legal consequences when the pay away brutality away and along with currupt laws like qualified immunity less than 5% of cops who ingage in currupt or abusive behavior ever face legal consequences. And even before militarization there were a cases like the Central Park 5 in the 70’s that went under raps for decades of cops abusing their power and pinning cases on minorities. Los angelos is the 2nd highest city who pays the most in police brutality settlements to cover up crime and New York is number 1. Maybe just maybe there’s so much distrust because plethora of cops have abused their power in minorities and they rarely face consequences because things like blue wall of shield and settlements. Maybe just maybe these cops have been in these unions for decades, not facing consequences but and abusing their civilians. Like joe and Ben said if you have 100 good cops and 30 bad cops but the 100 good cops don’t do anything about the 30 bad cops you have 130 bad cops.
@@amisings3716 fry
Neville Speed fry ????
You got it backwards. The resentment started with the black community towards cops. Cops for decades and decades abused and mistreated black people Pre -Civil rights. Even tho things are better now and cops aren’t inherently and blatantly racist, these cops are today are suffering from the transgressions of their predecessors. Do the some research on how ruthless the LAPD was in the 70’s and 80’s. This disdain from both sides didn’t start with black people, it started with the police. And that hate and distrust the police get is very well earned. It’s up to Police to gain the respect and trust back, not black people.
Also, within these poor communities are a code of honor or a code of silence. Many people don't want to come forward with information in fear of retaliation.
Long stoner rant forgive me: I’ve got a friend who is a cop and I know he is a good guy with a good heart, so I know there are cops out there that really want to help people and keep them safe, however he’s told me if you speak out against another officer or a superior for questionable behavior you run the risk of being punished or demoted to a lesser role. We need to protect the good cops and weed out the guys who are just on a power trip. Also, it should be illegal for an officer to turn off his body cam or tamper with it to obfuscate evidence. The black bagging in Portland should make us all very uncomfortable regardless of where you stand politically. As a lefty I wouldn’t stand for right wingers being kidnapped who were peacefully protesting and exercising their constitutional rights. And if you believe the people being grabbed are actual criminals I would point to the 700+ videos of police attacking non violent protesters all aggregated into a twitter thread that you won’t see on any main stream news network. Over 20% of Americans are unemployed and 32% can’t afford their house payments/rent and yet the corporations are suddenly big fans of socialism and get bailed out by the government with money seemingly pulled out of thin air. But when it comes time to help working folks the politicians want to talk about the deficit all of a sudden. Even though trump is trying to cut taxes for the rich yet again. The media will try to divide us to ensure we are politically impotent, we need solidarity across the working class in the country and we need to demand change from our politicians or kick their ass out of office. It’s time to end for-profit policing and prisons in this country.
This behavior is the same for any business or organization. It's just normal human behavior to protect your own. Hard to fight that.
I get all that but, the people being "kidnapped" as you put it, are not just "peaceful protesters. These are people who have committed arson, theft, violence, and vandalism. If the mayors of these cities are not willing to have the police remove these people from the protests, do you just keep letting them destroy peoples businesses, drive people away from downtown areas, and generally disrupt the lives of people just trying to work and go about their daily activities?

And people wonder why cops aren't trusted
Last year while riding my bike to work at night I get pulled over by 2 cops who noticed that I didn't have lights on my bike. So, I'm given 2 tickets not 1, for no lights/reflectors & 1 for no audible signal. Mind you, my bike did have reflectors, that shit didn't matter to them. And no audible signal ??

@John Katz it's unfortunate that as a lawyer Ben doesn't know this and didn't point it out, but federal courts have been consistently whittling away at when and where qualified immunity applies for the last 2 years. In my opinion it needs to be whittled away even further, but there has been significance progress. if you want to learn about it I strongly recommend a UA-cam channel called "Uncivil law", he is a lawyer who reads Court decisions and analyzes them, he has a bunch of videos on qualified immunity and he is very critical of qualified immunity in general

I always find conversations between these two to be incredibly informative, they need to have more, I learn more with them than any other of his guests aside from Jordan Peterson and a handful of other people, I think it's because the conversation is just so healthy, even when they disagree they do it in an incredibly constructive way.
Cops, huh? Survey-Question: Seen the multiple Cop-Videos of UA-camr Some More News? Have you read the Top-Comments?
Listen at .75 speed to make Ben Shapiro sound “normal”.
Also makes Joe sound drunk.
That's nuts
I dont think I'm gonna change the speed for this interview
@@OR5UM Nah, Joe sounds like he's wired to shit on coke
Man Joe should bring in the whole crew: Alex Jones, Eddie Bravo, Joey Diaz, Ben Shapiro, and Jordan Peterson
alex jones and eddie bravo in the same conversation :D:D:D:D:D:D
@The Shitstorm Starter there is no evidence against Chris D´elia yet.....
@The Shitstorm Starter because he doesn't want to attract any extra attention to himself...... he knows that media are not interested in facts, but only in scandal, so they will do anything to shit all over his name just to sell more...... plus, we live in a culture where society doesn't care about due process anymore....... all those crazy SJWs and feminists would start screaming "believe women" even without any evidence, cause that's the shitshow we live in these days...... I'm sure chris is not interested in any of that shit
@The Shitstorm Starter Louis CK admitted what he did, so he's in a bit harder situation...... but with Chris Delia, there is no evidence of his crime, so he is waiting until the "SJW mob" turns on someone else...... after the smoke clears, I'm sure he WILL address the rumors somewhere publicly......
Terry Crews for President! He’s got a 3 point plan to fix everything!
Well he need to hurry up cause we're running out of burrito coverings 🌯😂
President Camacho!!!!
I hope this is a reference to idiocracy!
Honestly America is becoming more and more like that movie, i cant wait for them to start watering their crops with Gatorade cos the media said its full of electralights which is what plants need
I’m Uhmariken, Gatorade has electric lights? Awesome!
We've got this guy, Not Sure !!!
Wow. His easy three things are pretty good. I don't think I've ever agreed with him before.
Totally wrong
Facts don't care about your feelings
To everyone who thinks left vs right is the main problem in this country, I recommend watching a Yuri Bezmenov video. An ex KGB agent from the 80’s basically summed up everything you see now
I agree but I think justice Democrats or what some people call Democratic socialist, will actually try to work for the people and not bend us working people over the table and fucking us in the ass, among other things like health care, the very problem the video is addressing.
I was just watching that video the other day. It’s happening, we’re 30 years into the brainwashing
Left.... right.... both trash....all THE ILLUSION OF CHOICE
I'm gonna check those vids out thanks
Its not left vs right… especially not now, now its Top vs the Bottom, elite vs the working class
Finally some simple changes that can work.
End the war on drugs. Stop infringing on the 2A. End for profit prisons and put term limits on congress and the Supreme Court! Ed Pool 2020!
Let's also reform the 13th ammendment so you cant legally be a slave if convicted of a crime. That makes us morally reprehensible
Also the 2nd ammendment isnt being infringed upon i say this as a former Ranger and a combat trainer
Joe Cannabyte no it is by Donald trump himself yet his mindless supporters will fail to realize this
@@Getithowyouliveit44- how is it being infringed upon, as far as i can see people still have the right to bear arms
@@callanc3925 biggest things over the last few years were decisions to ban accessories like bump stocks, a verbal statement on being interested in banning suppressors, as well as the big doozy of if he did ban guns, he would confiscate/arrest people first then have due process second instead of the other way around.
loved the discussion gentleman. This is how a back and forth should happen, Joe's eyes were opened a little on some things and he had shit to contribute that made sense as well. The best dialog I have seen hands down about all the bullshit thats going on right now. Good shit.
Great commentary from 2 highly intelligent Men who don't necessarily agree on everything civilly discussing their points
How old is Ben? Was he 4 when he started? He's been looking like 18 for 20 years
He still thinks like an 18 year old too 😂
36

Gamer Epic An absolute genius is a stretch lol.
Ye, he thinks like a child.
Joe "I-know-cops-who-eat-elk" Rogan
“The biggest factor in terms of lack of faith in police from citizens is the media” This is the exactly true and applies in far more than just faith in law enforcement.
spot on
The media has apparently made it their goal in life to have us lose faith in every American institution. Just to sell advertising, with no regard to the damage they are doing to the country.
The cops wouldn’t make it so easy to lose faith in them if they stopped escalating situations, killing minorities, and brutalizing protesters while decked out like COD cosplay
@@ralphholiman7401 In last years it seems like the goal of media in USA is to incite civil war...
Nope. The biggest factor in terms of lack of faith in police is the advent of camera phones. For years, all we've had to go on with these interactions were the stories of the men involved; the police and the alleged criminal. And who wouldn't take the word of a respected officer over an accused criminal? But now we have video evidence of each of these incidents and trust in police is dropping because of what we are seeing recorded on tape. The police have no one but themselves to blame for the way the world sees them now.
This might be one of the few times where I actually agree with Ben Shapiro on something
I do agree with most of the stuff Ben Shapiro says. I think the media is trying to portray him as stupid because they don’t want him to ruin the narrative they are pushing down our throats.
I agree with a lot of the stuff that he says, which one of the things he has said (and other people have) is that you don't have to hate someone if they disagree with you, which I wish more people were like that. It's okay if we don't agree on something, we can both still be polite to each other...even if you like pineapple on your pizza, I'll still be your friend.
You agree when he says abortion is murder???
@@JH-ki9xb I don't think it's as clear cut as just saying that it's always absolutely murder. I do think it's ending a life, but it's not always just a cut and dry 'we don't want a kid ruining our life' type of decision, and I wouldn't want to take away the ability for someone to do or make unnecessarily hard. I don't like it, but I don't think it should be illegal. I also am not going to hate someone because they think it's 100% okay or if they think it's 100% not okay. We can have different opinions and take different routes and still live good lives.
I would rather be nice and respectful to someone for the thousands of reasons we agree on and get along, rather than be enemies over one thing we don't.
@@JerkFrags so you do believe it's taking a life... But you don't want to call it murder? I don't get that
Ben Shapiro sounds like an audio book on 2x speed.
Qualified immunity, as explained to me as a former reporter, is meant to “allow law enforcement personnel to do their job without fear of litigation.”
That's what it should be but it hasn't become that. It's basically given a free pass to police officers who are doing things within their job that don't fall in the parameters of the scope of what they're legitimately allowed to do in their job and not be sued for it.
The growing distrust of WAP
People: Cops are extremely abusive and violent
Also people: WE WON"T SELL YOU FOOD
Those people: *not abused by that cop*
ok
I am a liberal and have many disagreement with Shapiro's ideology but what he said makes perfect sense. I wish Conservatives and Liberals could have more reasonable discussions like this that two sides could learn from each other, instead of bashing each other.
Don't you just love discussions and debates without labeling your opponent as racist or other derogatory terms? I wish we would uphold these strategies more on social media.
There's people that are cops and shouldn't be, there's also people that are people in our society that shouldn't be.
You should invite Cody Johnston from Some More News on to talk with Ben Shapiro or by himself.
"shoot him in the back... that is sue-able" [1:40 - 1:55]. Did Ben just predict the future?
Well You know..... come on he litteraly went for the fucking Gun....
Cops are allowed to shoot people who are reaching for a weapon in the back. It’s one of the only times they’re allowed to do that
@@erenjeager2003 but he didn't have a gun.
I mean that was justifiable, like he's dumb enough to pull a stunt like that and the media portrayed it horribly....
The dude was a violent rapist anyway. I'm sure the apparent race issue was the furthest thing from the firing squads mind at that point
4:36 "yOu MeAN pResiDent TrUmP haD tHe WorsT pOsSiBLE reAcTiOn t0 a ThiNG?!"
(i was laughing after this one, must admit)
Numbers don't have feelings. Ben rules with knowledge.
@Ed Koskosk that’s pretty ironic considering that Ben operates entire on his feelings and pushes away facts that don’t fit his worldview.
In this episode he claims that spending more money on the police in improvised black communities will help them. But in a 2018 study from the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of the America found that Militarization fails to enhance police safety or reduce crime but may harm police reputation.
Police militarization does not lead to a decrease in crimes committed or officer injuries, it actually increases both.
Police militarization (including the adoption of SWAT teams) decreases public trust in police, which contributes to increases in crime.
Militarized police are disproportionately deployed in African American communities, even when accounting for crime rates. But Ben still thinks it’s a good idea to throw more police in black communities because he ignores the consensus that the police have a massive racial bias, but you would miss that if you got your data from Ben ;)
Ok
Basic business principle: You want better cops then you need better candidates and to get that you have to treat cops better. More training, more time off the streets for recovery, better pay, etc. Who the hell wants to sign up to be a cop right now? And why would they?
The us also needs more training for cops. I think it‘s only like 6 month until you become a cop. It should be way more, like 2 years. Every other job in the world has longer learning periods, i think that would really weed out all the candidates that do it only to get power
More funding for the cops
This is why the cries for defunding the police are moronic. When you slash police budgets, the first thing thing to be slashed is going to be pay. If you reduce the pay, then the only people who will be willing to be a police officer are the psychopaths and sociopaths who would want to be police no matter what the pay is, because of the feeling of power it gives them.
Speaking of basic business principles, the best thing to do to reform the police is to completely outlaw police unions. Having a union for a government job is completely nonsensical. Imagine if there were a Senator's Union or Representative's Union.
Geoffrey Wilson They need therapy. They are extremely traumatized by the nature of their job and that trauma comes out in their interactions with the public.
These people saying unions are the problem have clearly never dealt with municipal governments. They would pay cops $15 an hour and spend the rest on inflated contacts for their cronie buddies. Unions make sure cops don't get fired for being unpopular.
3:30 well Joe, how do the cops take care of a bad cop when their reputation is on the line too, your Lieutenant is a bad cop but he’s the one who says wether or not you even get to be one.
@Real Life Ridiculous post
Anyone that studies analytics will tell you that you can make any study/data show what you want.
My Statistics Professor taught me this most obvious truth....
And, even though it was very obvious after I heard it, I didn't hear it from this guy/Professor until I went back to college in my 30's.
Still.
Data > anecdotes
J R that would depend entirely on the source and slant of the data.
Michael Yates
Still better than anecdotes, which mean nothing when it comes to trying to label something an epidemic that needs reform
J R how can it be better when the data can say whatever you want it to say? Real life experience vs choosing whichever data supports your argument. Talk to anyone who studies analytics. You will here the same.
Appreciate Joe providing a platform for healthy dialogue. Subscribed to the podcast.
yet again joe finds a way to bring in martial arts to the discussion
Corona: i have come to end human lives
Humans: not if we do it first buddy.
Joe is such a good interviewer, I can watch Ben only when Joe interviews him
Fact.
These 2 talking is so entertaining.
I'm white and I say arrest EVERYONE that's not me. Thanks a head of time.
The presumption that any cop is a good person is deeply disturbing
The “data” does not need to be mountainous when the statistics represent violent incidents. Oppression does not need to be widespread. That’s what the phrase “making an example” infers. My father only had to spank me a handful of times for it to be effective.
@Harry Paul Im not sure this is exactly what hes saying but its my interpretation. If you see people who look like you routinely being profiled and (in some cases killed for no real reason) by the people who are in power over you, its going to make you change your behaviour. Whether that change is to avoid police or just not trust them at all. It doesnt need to be happening everyday, just enough for you to notice that it is happening.
Just like his dad spanking him, it only needs to be occassional to seriously alter the way youre thinking
I’m a huge progressive and some points Ben made are actually valid. The reform of unions and the curving and rework of qualified immunity are things I think make sense.
The media isn’t to blame for people distrusting cops. Cops not taking accountability was MORE than enough.
2:30 They move them around like priests.
Those cops at 5 guys they talking about happened in my hometown
That’s so crazy because I ate lunch today!
Two of my favorite people. Thanks for the video. Couldn't agree more with your observations. Thanks. Appreciated. Policing? We need to consider how to get from policing 2.0 to policing 3.0.
I love how people don’t care where the funds go as long as the cops don’t have it
Yeah that's not the message.
The idea of “defund the police” is to redirecting some of the money that goes to the police into education both of the citizens and of the police officers themselves and health care centers. Better education and access to health clinics leads to lower crime rates. Defunding the police is one of the only ways to lower crime rates.
nicolas guzman I see what you mean but don’t you think that we should try to get to the root of the problem and end it there then to let it manifest to a point where you need more cops because of the higher crime rates
@@grinnergonewild3652 The root of the problem is values thought at home. Well thought children will avoid a crime life therefore less police will be needed. This is the responsibility of good parenting and not schools's job.
@@joynelbonetdelgado4952 im not saying that the school should teach the children morals im saying that if schools had better funding then the kids would be better educated and in areas with better education the crime rates are lower. Also its not all black and white like that, lack of education and poverty is a vicious cycle that is very hard to (though not impossible) to break.

@@rlast4698 The dumbest thing I read today, You immediately assume their backgrounds and hardships based on race? Weak.
I’m an American and I’ve been living in Brazil for over 10 years now. If you claim that you can’t make it in the most prosperous country in the world, that you have been oppressed and weren’t afforded any opportunities, I’m sorry, I can’t show much sympathy for you. I don’t want to discredit anyone’s hardships and struggles, but there needs to be a point in which you must end the victimhood. Visit the favelas in Rio, São Paulo or any other corner of Brazil and you will see truly squalid conditions and abject poverty.
1. Saying you can't complain bc there are people who have it worse than you is like saying you can't be happy bc there are people who have it better than you.
2. There are parts of America that essentially operate like 3rd world countries. Not everywhere in America is a luxurious land of opprotunity.
3. The vast majority of Americans are overworked and underpaid, working their entire lives yet not even making enough to live; forcing them into debt. Its enough to make anyone lose faith in our system.
Krampus
1. Not saying that you can’t complain.
2. I’m well aware that there are decrepit communities throughout the country. However, the chances of rising from the rubble are much higher in the US.
3. The vast majority? I really don’t know about that.
You make great points. I’ll leave you with this question: why is it that so many people still want to move to the US?
@@lowfrequency1180 People still come to the U.S. bc there are alot of places worse than us in the world, and the U.S. being a place that allows immigrants to come here and make a better life for themselves is one of the things I love most about my country.
The chances of rising out of poverty here are are greater than say Nigeria, but America being the most powerful country in the world should probably strive to be a bit better than that and be able to compete with say the Nordic countries where labor laws allow workers to negotiate with their employers and have much more power in their workplace than they do here.
1 in 5 children in America are currently growing up in poverty, and we have an education system that funds schools by the wealth of the houses around them, leading to poorer areas getting worse schools. 80% of Americans can't afford a 500$ emergency, and in a country without Universal Healthcare that adds up to alot of unexpected medical debt. America may be a place people from the third world can escape poverty, but for a first world country; especially one as wealthy as we are, we could definitely take a few notes from countries doing certain things objectively better than we are.
