Saw a show last night called "Caught on Camera." There were several video clips of cops choosing to mete out punishment on their own. In two South Carolina videos cops dragged the passenger out of the car, beat the crap out of him, and left him without arresting him. The guys hadn't done anything illegal. The cops knew their own car video camera was running and the beat the hell out of innocent people right in front of the camera. They seem to think they have a right to do that. Two other videos showed SC cops running suspects down with their cars. One cop got a 3 day suspension for running into a guy. Another one was reprimanded for driving through the back yards in a housing development chasing a guy. You could see kids running jumping out of the way of the cop car.
If cops wonder why innocent people run away from them they should take a look at their profession's behavior. If you are going to get beaten-up, abused, or run over if you stop, you may as well run and try to avoid it.
