We can't even oust a cop when:
footage comes out showing they harmed someone for no reason *& lied about it*
the harmed people sue & the city settles
a grand jury indicts & the police chief fires them
B/c the jury acquits & the arbitrator reinstates... w/ backpay.

BTW this is the same arbitrator...
"In both cases, a police officer followed and shot to death a civilian after a heated confrontation.
In both cases... the police chief fired the officer.
And in both cases, Bartman reversed the termination..." https://www.expressnews.com/news/news_columnists/brian_chasnoff/article/Arbitrator-made-another-controversial-ruling-6832271.php

In the wake of yet another person of color being killed by APD. And policing of social distancing targeting black people around the country. And the former cop killing #AhmaudArbery & not being held accountable for months.
This is all too much. My heart hurts.
