It is a problematic modern trend to group people together into one homogenous group - as if the individual actions of one person represent the total sum of that group. It's easy to do and it's lazy to do. It doesn't matter whether you're taking the actions of one white woman and referring to every white woman as a Karen, or one rapist and calling all men predators - all it does is simply stoke the fires of divisive rhetoric and it demonstrates either a lack of journalistic integrity or a painfully simplistic outlook on the world. In short, it makes you no better than Fox News.

Your article has highlighted the reprehensible actions of a number of police officers and then generated out to all of them. It's very very clear that the US police force needs to engage in systemic change, it needs to be able to weed out those who are simply there to abuse power. I'm not convinced that reflects all police officers up and down the county. This article suggests that there is a war between the people, who are inherently good, and every single police officer who therefore must be evil, up and down the country.

That doesn't feel like a mature and sensible way to deconstruct a complicated problem. Let me adjust your title for you.... "A Small Minority of Police are Hurting People Because They Want To" or... keep the first bit and add 'To suggest otherwise would be what any sane rational person would do when faced with an overwhelmingly fallacious clickbait headline".

Words matter. Your words matter. Especially as America teeters on the brink of civil war. GEN has a responsibility to speak about complicated truths with insight. For that reason I have no idea why they have chosen to make you, and continue to use you as their spokesperson.
