Overwhelming support for police does not mean that taxpayers should be on the hook when they fuck up.
I get your point, I just disagree that taxpayers shouldn't be on the hook for all the black people we've killed and the families we've destroyed.
I'm not a fan of the continuous buck passing that seems foundational to American culture and I don't believe "making police unions pay for it" will solve a "problem" that most Americans support. If I had to guess, cops would likely just rob from more black and brown people to make up for the loss
