Smartass.
For calling you out on your unsupportable statement? OK.
But if you think there aren’t and haven’t always been military people abusing their authority your world must have unicorns and fairies!
I spent 28 years in uniform (from E-1 to O-5), so I'd say I'm something of an expert. I NEVER saw anything approaching the behavior of your average cop on the street.
As far as unicorns and fairies go, I will defer to your expertise in the area, Nancy.
Waco.
Tanks.
Women and children gassed and burned.
If that whole murderous fiasco wasn’t an abuse of military power what was it?
Only following orders didn’t excuse the Nazis.
And most readers would have understood I referred to the history of police,politicians,miltary,and other people of authority EVERYWHERE not just in the U.S.
Let us be clear. It is not the average cop but the all too large minority of cops who think they are a power unto themselves who cause the problems.And every day a bad cop (or whomever) continues in a position of power and authority is one day too many.
