So the cop who threatened to “F***ing kill” the reporter or protester (unclear which the man was)

[tblue37]

last night and then yelled, “F*** you!” when the guy politely requested his name (with "sir" and everything) has been suspended “indefinitely” (which probably means only until we aren’t watching any more).

But what about the cop that yelled, “Bring it, all you f***ing animals! Bring ii!” or the one who told a reporter, “I have 4,000 animals to control”? Shouldn’t they also be removed from policing the protests and suspended for their blatantly inappropriate attitude and behavior and for their obvious unsuitability for police work?

It won't happen, but it should.

1. The cop was caught on camera

And the camera person had the guts to how it to the world.

The other guy was said to have told a reporter about the 4,000, and not on camera. But considering the source - CNN- i doubt that even if on camera CNN would have guts enough to show it.

2. The "Bring it!" cop was also on video, and the video was fairly widely

distributed. I saw it on several different sites

On Edit: I also saw it on TV coverage.

3. All those cops on the line...

....with guns raised at the crowd way down the street.....

Everyone of them needs a new job.

I do find it amazing the courage of the people on the streets protesting, even tho just about everyone of them has been in the sight's of the guns of the out of control cops.

The people of Ferguson are setting a wonderfully peaceful example for the rest of cowardly America.

4. Yes, and they are also setting a wonderful example of a community coming together

to help each other. A lot of those cops are behaving like violent, rampaging "animals," but the Ferguson community as a whole is demonstrating the best of human nature.

5. Did everyone see that a young man's cell phone recording of the

police version of the cops' shooting of that "knife-wielding man" outside a store in St. Louis was not accurate? The guy was further away than the 3-4 feet the cops claimed, his hands were at his side, and he was not brandishing his knife.
