Police are definitely struggling with a bad image right now. I believe that individual communities are going to handle their relationships with local officers in their own way. In my city there is not a greater disrespect for the police (at least from what I am aware) than before Ferguson. If a police person killed someone here, I personally would want to understand it all. I would hope that he/she would be taken off duty, and the matter fully investigated. If they were found to not be at fault, and followed the law, I would consider the matter closed, and would continue to show the officer and the department respect.
