I don’t think any change will occur because of BLM protests, because the Floyd murder has brought up only racism and not police brutality on the whole. This is not a black issue. Unarmed whites and hispanics are also shot unnecessarily, and we aren’t addressing it. The police can stop being racist and there will still be shootings of innocent people because the police for years have been armed and brutal to everyone. But we always get the bone, not the meat, so we’re going to go after a secondary problem that won’t change anything.

Perhaps disarming your regular police force could be the answer, only allow specialised forces to carry weaponry, the rest only having non-lethal force such as batons, pepper spray and tasers. This could at least limit the number of shootings carried out by the police.
