Get rid of that and I won’t go hands on with anybody. Ever. I’m not risking my life savings and home to pay off some entitled pussy.
Even when we are found to be in the right, the Gov still pays.
If we are in the wrong in the GOV eyes, they will not defend us.
It’s not as much of a security blanket as you think. Least not where I work.

I wouldn't risk my savings/home/family either. So I don't disagree with you there.
But absolute power corrupts absolutely. And while you may high moral fiber, the qualified immunity system grants power to those who may not. Those are the people murdering and abusing the public and ending up in the news.
Saying it's just a consequence of the system, but it's all we've got, is all well and good until you're the one with a death by cop family member and watching him/her walk free.
Reform is needed. Not at the expense of the innocents livelihood (read police officers families), but absolutely to the effect it gives pause to potential abuses of power.
