1. IMO, while there are good cops, a good cop becomes a bad cop when they do not stop bad cops. My idea for curtailing this is a lot like Brisket's, but goes even further (1. Have salaries be higher, but bennies lower (especially pensions - make them like the rest of us), 2. I will not say disallow Police unions, but significantly decrease their power and position. There is a happy medium, but right now the Union has way too much power, 3. Have pensions be liable when bad cops do shit like this, and the taxpayer will NOT replace those lose dollars, 4. Those up the chain of command of a bad cop ALSO lose their job and face civil and potentially criminal penalties (negligence in oversight or something like that). I guarantee if the Captain or Chief's well being on the job is at stake, some shit will change, 5. Any cops doing shit like Chauvin are fired, charged criminally, and lose all benefits (including vested pension))
2. The protests need to be more organized. In NYC, you have to have a permit to march down the road. A couple of hundred thousand marching down Fifth Ave to City Hall would be much more impactful than what we are seeing now.
3. Fuck the violence, property damage, and looting. The folks doing this are, in the vase majority of cases, NOT protestors. They are far right/left groups who are itching for out and out civil war in the US. Fuck these people. Their actions damage the community further. These fuckers should be held criminally and civilly liable. And if someone like Trump is instigating (or the equivalent on the far left), fuck them. Hold them accountable too. No one should be above the law, and using social media to incite violence is akin to yelling fire in the crowded theater.
