The most egregious, intolerable subset of these incidents are the deliberate, targeted shootings. And we've seen a high proportion of those in LA just during the short course of these protests.

Enhanced criminal penalties should be mandated for all such incidents.

It's interesting, and perhaps telling, that LAPD engages in cross-training with security and military forces of a particular nation with a noteworthy history of violence agains press and journalists (including an American woman who was targeted and killed).

They, along with many US PDs, participate in this program bearing the enchanting and appropriate name "Deadly Exchange".

What "particular nation...with a history of violence..." are you referring to?

Why, Tahiti, of course!

Anyone who's doubtful or unsure can simply google "deadly exchange" and more shall be revealed.
