The media boiling down US police brutality to "cops be racist" over-simplified a very complex issue that has been plaguing the US for decades.   


Fixing the US police system would mean completely overhauling training, procedure, rules of engagement, screening, fitness reviews, equipment, etc, etc. And doing that would take time, resources and money.   


So screw that, it's easier to say "cops be racist" and leave it at that, then suddenly, when you're in power, they stop being racist.

Police forces in the US get *much more* money than the much more effective police in Sweden, just as one example.

It seems to me like maybe the issue isn’t only the *quantity* of money going towards the police, but also the fact that they spend tens of millions every year buying surplus APCs and tactical gear from our bloated military industrial complex.
