Of course. Everyone knows that our Defenders of Justice would *never*, say, shoot a leashed (knowing it was leashed) Golden Retriever (in Ohio) on the grounds that said defender claimed “I feel threatened”.
Correction: Cleveland, Mississippi, not Cleveland Ohio.
My question is: Wy do the “good” cops protect the “bad” cops?
If you are hiding the errors of your co-workers, you are JUST AS GUILTY of whatever their misdeed may be.
If these purported “good” cops would weed out the “bad” cops, we wouldn’t even be having this conversation.
Why says they are? And its why, not wy
Because bad cops and there are some are news. Good cops, no matter how many there are, are not news. That’s why
If, after committing a crime, your boss announces that your company will explore whether a crime was committed and whether you were the criminal, your boss (and company) would be guilty of being accessories to the crime.
And yet, in police stations across this nation, far, far, far more officers are subjected to “internal investigations” and/or “paid administrative leave” than are arrested, convicted, and serve the entirety of their sentences.
I’m glad you’ve never made a typo. As for “good” cops, my question stands:
If there are so many of them, how can so many bad eggs get through the screening process?
If there are so many “good” cops, why do we never hear of them weeding out the scumbuckets that exist in every vocation?
Why is it that 99 times out of a hundred, a citizen’s complaint against an officer is dismissed? No other job I know of has that level of stellar employees.
How do police officers get away with trespassing and shooting dogs in their owner’s yards (on a leash in this specific case)? What would happen to YOU if you went into your neighbor’s yard and shot his dog?
There are some excellent officers out there, (the one that aided that young lady out in the middle of nowhere is a good example) but the public is getting tired of seeing cops break the law with impunity.
Something is going to break, and NOBODY is going to like the consequences.
Not possible. The median income in Cal is $61K.”Police Officer” Pay in California
Okie dokie, have you? ;-)
Of course it doesn’t, but the number of incidents where cops assault people (as you put it) is miniscule compared to the thousands of cops who do a difficult job every day of the year.
Considering the stress of the job and the crap they have to put up with, I’m surprised cops manage to have such self-control the majority of the time.
Four times.
Good for you. Most people don’t care that much.
