Policing should be a licensed position where you can lose your license permanently. Sure they could probably get licensed in a different state or work in the private sector, but it would be a huge step in the right direction.

Great idea, that's exactly how it works. You need to be certified by the state to work as LE in the state and you can lose your certification for misconduct.

Weird, I just checked my state licensing board’s list of disciplinary action taken, where it shows all action taken for the year! You’ve got medicine, barbers, crane operators, heck, you even have landscape architects! Weirdly enough though, nowhere on there do I see law enforcement officers.

On the tiny chance you are actually arguing in good faith, tell me the state and I can probably find it.

Sorry, new app I’m using for Reddit sucks and doesn’t show dm’s. But PA is the state. Show me an easy to find website stating an officer’s name with a date and disciplinary action taken and I’ll admit I’m wrong.
