The problem is, not many are taking advantage of such things.
I guess you didn't comprehend the purpose of this thread. There is a thread that explains what BLM thinks the police need to do to improve relations. The purpose of my thread is to brainstorm what citizens can do to help.

My biggest thing would be to ask citizens to try and not look at law enforcement officers as a whole, as one living entity that thinks and acts the same.

Lots of cops have been murdered that way; pull someone over on the highway and get shot in the face when they approach the car window.

But then the officer has no way to defend him/herself if the person they pull over has a gun themselves. Lots of cops have been murdered that way; pull someone over on the highway and get shot in the face when they approach the car window. The only way around that is to regulate guns completely, and of course that's never going to be a viable compromise in this country.
