I get that thanks to Democrat policies, policing is much more difficult these days. I also get that most cops are decent people. They’re just trying to do their jobs.

But my goodness, incidents like this one are driving a wedge between the police and the citizenry. Bad times are ahead. We can’t afford that.

And a side note to the bad cops: Cameras are everywhere now. Everywhere. Do something crazy, and the whole world will know.

Hard fact, police are only as decent as the government that controls them. when you are ruled by thugs you are “policed” by their thugs.

With actions like this towards the citizens coupled with the mass “Just following Orders”, why exactly are we supposed to have trust in the police???

The cop’s side of the story went entirely unreported, yet the FR cop haters are rushing to judgment.

Suddenly, a female officer punches Adriana in the face.

This ends when:

1) Cops routinely go to prison for assault and civil rights violations.

2) Judgments against them are paid out of their own pockets, and out of their pension funds.

3) Cops are rewarded for arresting rather than abetting the criminals in their ranks.

It has become very clear, to anybody who wants to see and acknowledge the truth, that the cops have chosen to serve those who sign their checks. They have chosen the side of tyranny over freedom and patriotism. They are simply paid gunslingers of the American Communists. A modern day NKVD. I FIRMLY believe there is a particular psychological defect that drives one to become a cop.

I remember elderly people sixty years ago, saved from a house fire, breaking free and running back into the flames. I never understood it.

“Most cops are good people”

*IF* that’s the case, then why don’t the “GOOD” cops remove/challenge/expose the bad cops? Police acting as tyrants would be vanishingly rare were that true. Instead we have DOZENS of video channels on all platforms showing thousands of events where the cops are out-of-line and acting like they are judge, jury, and executioner. No so-called “good cop” stops them or intercedes on the citizens’ behalf.

98% of cops give the 2% a bad name.

There is NO situation that cannot be made worse and precious few that can be improved by bringing the cops in.

It’s not the public that has changed all that much, it’s the militarization of the police that has driven a wedge between the public and their employees. Example: officers referring to the public as “civilians” rather than “citizens”.

Police are not supposed to be a military arm, and ONLY the military should use that expression, since they are separated from the public by virtue of their position.

The Police were just doing their jobs; following standard procedure. There is no record of any policeman violating a citizen’s rights.
