As Robbie pointed out, cops are trained this way, so one of the ways to fix the cop problem is to fix the training problem. accountability is the other part of the problem, make cops accountable for their actions- require body cameras and require them to be on and functioning at all times. Also, require cops to be held personally accountable for wrong-doing.

Finally, the judicial system needs adjusting. as it stands, it favors cops shooting and killing people and makes that OK, change that. It's not OK. Put cops on trial and prosecute in a fair system.
