I have a very hot take with no disrespect to you, but why? Where I live the police are well educated and well trained. We rarely have incidents with them (when we do, they are promptly investigated). I even had the opportunity to be one myself but I quit because they had me working 16 hour shifts with 8 hours in between. If we had more staff then I wouldn’t have quit and the other officers would be able to think more clearly. When people follow the trend of protesting against police training centers and police officers in general it harms public safety, the mental health of officers and the morale of responders who work with them like firefighters, EMTs and security. I have an even spicier take that the ACAB movement is a foreign influence operation online designed to destabilize the United States. All that being said, I’m completely in support of police reform and even more left wing ideals- if they could get the same training that therapists do the country would be very different. 
Edit: I even reported my supervisor for believing in conspiracy theories and ignored when people were using cannabis or were addicted to illegal substances. I wasn’t enabling some system designed to hurt people, I was actively working to improve it.
