No doubt there are some yahoo's and people that should not be Police Officers (in fact they should be in prison).

But they work for you. Get your A$$ and everyone else's A$$ down to City Hall and demand the Police to Police themselves. If they don't do it demand the City Council/Mayor/City Manager to do their job.

I was a LEO for close to 10 years. And the thing that pissed me off the most was bad Police Officers that should never have been issued a uniform. And yes we let our Brass know about.

Nobody more grateful for the presence of â€œThose who protect and serveâ€, than myself. I would not like my neighborhood to be at risk to the kind of losers that exist. Cowardly louts whose target is always someone weaker and defenseless. Trouble is possibly the length of the training which entails public expense. This would include screening for the sociopath. This type of person is clever in paying lip service to the system. The savings of short cuts likely offset by the occasional horror story.

We have our own awful set back for police public relations in Canada a few months ago. A hitherto quiet teen male got on a Toronto Street car and brandished a knife. He exposed himself as well. The street car operator did a great job. He halted his transport and got everyone off safely.

A police officer jumped on board. He screamed "drop the knife" then he pumped three shots into the youth. The youth hit the deck and then the officer pumped six more shots into him. Then he hit the youth with the taser.

The youth died. Only a public outcry brought about charges for the officer. We are waiting to hear his side of the story. Nobody wins here.

Excuse this ramble, but I went to my Ancestry.com and traced the records of Monroe Isadore. He was a human being.

Well good for you for letting the brass know. I want to have the respect back that I used to have for LEO and I do have the utmost respect for our Sheriff in El Paso County and have called his office to tell him so.

I have made my views clear on the subject and will continue to do so at every opportunity. Like everything else, it just takes the few bad eggs to ruin things for everyone. Unfortunately, these bad eggs are armed to the teeth and like to kill. The culture needs to be changed from within.
