Were you guys protesters in Ferguson too? |
I agree Paul - most cops do a good job and are careful with their authority.
As in many a situation - it's the
bad ones (and there are many, no doubt) that give the entire force a bad rap. You'd think the good cops would realize this and do more to resolve this.
So yeah...I think what chaps most of us is the reluctance for those good cops to weed out the bad ones. There's a code they follow not to rat on each other. That's my biggest issue aside from individual instances like this one.
I support law enforcement in general, but won't hesitate to call them out individually where applicable. Like this one - that lady cop is a
complete dumbass and a disgrace to the force.
