When one 737 Max crashed, some pointed the finger at the pilots.

When a second one crashed, the focus quickly shifted.

It is a common attitude in aviation that even pilot error is really a systems fault. Perhaps opposing buttons are too close together, or some control requires attention to be diverted at the wrong time, or pilots are allowed to fly too many hours without adequate rest, or plenty of other things that could contribute to predictable human failure.

It seems obvious that we can predict human failure in current policing. If two incidents with a 737 lead to an indefinite grounding, what's the right number for this situation?

In the case of the airplane, grounding does not create a public safety issue. And there are, of course, many alternatives that can keep the overall system up and running in the meantime. The solution to police brutality requires much more thought.

“Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. And, weak men create hard times.” Its a cycle we already saw so many times, I believe with so many movements asking for rights, that this is "weak men" part creating hard times.

Mexico did a while ago what so many people is asking for, disband a security corp, result? The Zetas.

Why people is ignoring statistics? People kill people of the same race.

Many of that videos is just a bunch of violent people being put as victims by others people agenda. Is like your big brother hits you, then you hit back and just you are punished.

Be careful and thoughtful in your judgments. If possible try to look back in history and search an alike situation outcome.

I don't think any reasonable person is suggesting we fully defund or disband the police. They are suggesting that by giving police military style gear it incentivizes them to use it.

Instead of giving the police this crazy gear, we should redirect that money into training for the police. Or maybe some of it should go to schools.

No, Minneapolis city council has unanimously voted to completely disband the police and are rethinking public safety from scratch. Reform clearly hasn't worked.
