What should be done to curb these types of abuses?

Here we have a case of a man walking with his dogs being assaulted by Denver police:

4. This only the tip of the Iceberg.

The abuse by police is only exposed when it is rarely captured on video. When you consider the extent of the abuse that has been inflicted by these ruthless bastards that is rarely detected, I can only imagine how extensive it actually is. The trash that are recruited to join the ranks and protected by their fellow police officers is disgraceful. It isn't surprising that the Police Union has said that if they are fired they will take the city to court. I hope that the impending FBI investigation is at least impartial, but I won't be holding my breath.

2. What should be done? The should all be fired immediately.

And they should be barred from ever working in law enforcement ever again. That's what should be done.

They should should also be personally liable for civil cases brought against them when they get sued into oblivion by the people they abused.

3. Indeed. Well said.

I agree. :applause:

Perhaps if cops faced the consequences of their actions they'd be less trigger happy.

5. Or if they were at the bar having a beer.
