2. Once upon a time I think cops did believe they were supposed to 'serve
and protect'. The majority that is. But since the 70s the situation has just gone downhill.

Notice too how many have shaved heads. They're skinheads pretty much.

Of course that whacko that had the quadrapelegic kid dumped out of the wheelchais is just a psycho-sadist criminal bitch.

It now is an us vs. them scenario. And the cops are chosing to make it that way.

12. Not to mention how the SWAT teams remind me of SS Stormtroopers with the machine-guns!

If you trust a cop these days you are a fool.

4. nothing's shocking
so sang Jane's Addiction in the late 1980s.

Nothing ever changes in the USA.

This shit has been widespread for decades. Only now is youtube bringing it to light.

7. Supreme Court said
they don't have to "Serve and Protect", so the new motto is "We will treat you like a (R) King".

11. Wish I could say it was surprising
but I know that this goes on every day across our country.

I have been pushing for random drug testing of cops in my town because I know that many of them are on drugs.

Who has more contact with illegal drugs than cops?

I believe that administrators do not want to drug test their officers because they know what the results would be.

14. More cops undermining the public trust
And people wonder why entire swaths of people no longer trust the police.

The race of the cop and the race of the man who was bit and had drugs planted on him is not lost to me.
