You and The Root are playing with a misinformation narrative of police causing massive reaction against them by black citizens The Root does that for monetary gain, feeding your irrational delusions: you hate and fear police so you hunt for any related story. It's just not true. Actually the number is so low as to be a statistical anomaly and lot of blacks know that. Furthermore, young urban MALE blacks are profiled for a reason: they are causing a huge number of serious violent crimes. Sensible black people are going along with that, if they actually have a "good boy" that is staying out of trouble, they give him "the talk". But grandma filling in for missing parents is sometimes fooled about who is and who isn't a "good boy"

How Informed are Americans about race and policing

More disturbingly, Black women are 2.5 times more likely to be murdered by men than white women. In the overwhelming majority of these cases — 92% — the person who killed them knew their victim. 56% of these homicides were committed by a current or former intimate partner. Nearly all —92% — of these killings were intra-racial, which means that they were committed by a Black man against a Black woman.

With statistics like these, the Black Women’s Health Project determined that domestic violence is the number one health issue facing Black women.

Congratulations, intentionally or not your propaganda influenced a considerable number of Latinos to leave the Democratic party. They can see how misinformed you are via cherry picking stories about "bad police" on their very own streets. They see when anyone has a real case about an outlier cop they sue the entity employing him/her and often win. All was working as it should despite the pandemic, they took their duty as essential workers seriously and showed up for work despite a year of stupid street protests and things like attacking statues by mostly white people. They nonetheless tried to hunt down the inspired looters and rioters as they should to keep stability of rule of law.

BTW, getting rid of qualified immunity will just mean that individual police officers basically have to have malpractice insurance like doctors do, and who pays for it will be an open question, it may still be the employing entity itself. It may just be carried by higher salaries.So basically no difference in cost! Citizens are still going to pay for "malpractice" with taxes.It's not going to be like doctors who can be an entity all to themselves 

It's almost like BLM protests were mostly inspired by anarchist rhetoric which has as its goal to cause discord that will bring the American system down. Oh wait, that's real. (Certainly they did a good job of feeding Trump and Trumpie fans overreaction and diviseness.)
