Or you know, hire better smarter people. Being police here in Norway is a bachelor's degree.

More reason to cover shit up then.

That is the most capitalistic solution to todays problem I have heard. Could work though!
InspiredForestRaptor
Insurance... The capitalist solution to everything

Me...I have achieved!
Insurance...It would be a shame if anything bad happened to your achievement.
Hairyoldfart
No, no thanks. That would cause far more frivolous lawsuits then anything else... You'd have idiots suing because the cop hurt their (1/?)
Hairyoldfart
feelings. My god, can you imagine the back up in courts this would cause, much less reduce the number of people willing to be cops. (2/?)
Hairyoldfart
Could just see it, help im being robbed, 10 hrs later an available cop shows up. (3/3)

Newsflash. I live in the LA area and that's how it is now. LAPD has a no respose policy to burglar alarm as does Las Vegas PD.
MisterRichard
Their malpractice insurance would be cheap because cops hardly ever get held accountable for anything.
ChanceVLuck
They would have to buy it from an insurace company just like a doctor. Insurance is one of a doctors biggest expenses.
MisterRichard
I'm well aware of how that works, and how insurance works. It would be cheap, like earthquake insurance.
ChanceVLuck
As someone who lives in California, I can assure you e-quake ins. is not cheap. Insurance is priced base on risk to the ins. company.
MisterRichard
You just said the reason why it would be cheap out loud, so you should've putting it together.
ChanceVLuck
Say whhhhat? You're going to need to make sense out of that non sequitur.

YOU TRUST INSURANCE COMPANIES?????
ChanceVLuck
Yes in one way. I trust they will keep their risk to a minimum. Unlike internal affairs keeping a bad cop, insurance co's will drop a risk.
hetherweaversmagic
Until they file for bankruptcy and are not required to pay out anything to the people they’ve insured.
ChanceVLuck
Yeah or until a metor takes out their corp. headquarters killing the person who signs the checks. Google "underwriter".
TalkingSnake
People already sue and cost the PD money, that is actually tax paid. Cops don’t seem to mind it so far.
ChanceVLuck
Thats my point. A third party, the insurance policy holder will look at it like every other risk. Bad risk cops lost their insurance & job.
TalkingSnake
Bad cops walk down the road and get hired at the next department all the time. You’re trying and that is good.
ChanceVLuck
Bad drives want to keep on driving but if they have lost their ability to get insurance they'll have to do so illegally. Who'll hire them?
TalkingSnake
So a lot of times cops who are facing shit will resign to avoid further action. That mark doesn’t follow them to the next job in the next -
TalkingSnake
city, county or state. Then when things really blow up it takes an investigative reporter all of 40min to find all of it. Cops lets cops -
ChanceVLuck
You are making my point. If the individual officer was required to buy a policy, they cannot quit to get out of their responsibility. -
