We really need to purge our police forces of these kinds of people as well as the racists there.

Trump may have done us a service in spite of himself by encouraging the insurrection and triggering many many arrests of those who were hidden from our view.
I know that was not his intent, but the consequences are a shift in public opinion, investigations and arrests, promised federal action to investigate Qanon and so forth.

People really need to control their thoughts/words and emotions, also policemen. I have respect for policemen putting their live on the line to help us. And being focused on criminals all day, I am not surprised they end up with more violent thoughts than those who have a different job.
I think policemen really need help to balance their emotions; and being hardened by their job, they probably won't ask for it. It's a known fact that people who fought in wars can go mad from all the violence they have seen there.
Probably being a police man is less intense than war, but still it's clear that they need help, help is more effective than just locking them up in prison
Good points. Rather than purge, the police, get them some therapy.

I think the age of the internet hasn’t helped in that matter. In fact I would argue that it has only exasperated some issues. Whilst it’s great that one could ideally utilise on demand sort of therapy through features on certain apps. This has also allowed for instantaneous reactions. Reactions that are perhaps said in the heat of the moment. Not that this gentleman can use that as an excuse. But recording your every waking thought? Probably not the best idea and yet we do so without thinking.IMO:

Maybe in a special prison, where they get the chance to have serious therapy, and stay there until fit for duty again.No reason you can't do both. At the very least, get the disturbed ones off the street.
Or a lifetime ban from any kind of law enforcementMaybe in a special prison, where they get the chance to have serious therapy, and stay there until fit for duty again.
I think that internet is not the cause of people acting out more violent, but internet is used a lot to express emotions. RF did not take out the negative emoticons for no reason. Probably good we now know that all this violence is there, and people can't hide it anymore (sexual abuse came out in recent years a lot), and now we see that other verbal abuse comes out. So, in a way it seems a big purge of violence is happening now. All people becoming aware of their emotions is a big step in transforming these emotions. So, maybe after all we are heading in the right direction. Till today I always thought it's a lost case "world peace". But looking from this POV, I can see some positive in it. Still, I won't hold my breath, will take a long time, but internet seems to have accelerated changes a lotI think the age of the internet hasn’t helped in that matter.

You never had a thought in your life like "I like to kill that person", ending up in "IF I could I would kill that person"?Or a lifetime ban from any kind of law enforcement
or gun possession after they get out of prison.
That is probably the tactic of "Christian Hell" also. Scare tactics, so people behave (even if it were out of fear only)Outsource to China prison.

I think it regularly. (I'm thinking it now.)You never had a thought in your life like "I like to kill that person", ending up in "IF I could I would kill that person"?
Yes, you are 1 big step ahead alreadyI think it regularly. (I'm thinking it now.)
But I don't advocate to others that we do it.
The subsequent steps are the significant ones.Yes, you are 1 big step ahead already
Being aware of suppressed emotions AND that we should not express our thoughts publicly, I see as the major stepThe subsequent steps are the significant ones.
