There are over 800K full time police officers in the US and one or two a$$hats show up on the news every now and then for doing something stupid and we condemn all police. To bad, so sad.
There’s a difference between “stupid” and “illegal”.
Tormenting an animal is illegal.
Yes, it is overblown. Agreed.
Sometimes the cops are in the wrong, sometimes not. But just because we see it in the papers doesn’t mean it’s representative. How many stories are we going to see about the cops who ferretted home a straying pet while on their rounds? Yup, 0. So it seems like cops are bad because ONLY BAD NEWS IS PRINTED.
One or two? Really? Where the heck have you been?This crap goes on all the time and its not the same one or two officers.The cops do themselves no favors doing stupid shit like this.
