CMV: There should be third party/watchdog investigators for any federal shootings, and the FBI should NOT be allowed to

I just recently read that the FBI is stopping local Minnesota investigators from investigating the shooting that occurred. So the FBI will be investigating the DHS, while both are pushing agendas in unison.
I believe that this should not be legal whatsoever. I think it's akin to police departments investigating themselves and finding no evidence of wrongdoing. (I personally saw this happening in New Orleans during Katrina).

From my side, the direction makes sense but the details are messy and that’s why this won’t land the same for everyone Feels like an opening move, not an ending.

there’s a lot said here but not much clarified which is why this is getting picked apart Interested to see the follow-up. That’s the impression it gives me.

Real talk, the follow-through is what will decide this and that’s the part people are stuck on Curious how this plays out.

Real talk, the direction makes sense but the details are messy and that tension shows up immediately That’s what makes this interesting. This probably isn’t the last word on it. That’s just my read on it.

To be fair, the idea isn’t bad, but the delivery is doing damage

From a practical angle, this depends heavily on what happens next and that’s the part people are stuck on Time will tell.

the main issue seems to be how this is handled which is why this is getting picked apart Interested to see the follow-up.

If you zoom out, the way this is presented changes how it lands and that’s where the disagreement starts We’ll see how people react over time.

there’s a lot said here but not much clarified That part stands out. Others will probably see it differently.

Putting bias aside, this feels like a half-step, not a full move
