I feel safe in saying that my posts on this thread have been very clear on not blaming LEO’s but rather the bigger picture. I am not aware of any “crap” that I have posted. You have used very restrained language up to this point, but I guess I made you mad. Sorry for that. Before you “fire for effect” believe that I see this as a broader problem than just the LEO’s involved. I also probably react more negatively towards the institutionalized abuse of power than you do. I see the problem with our elected officials, and with the people that elect them. For crying out loud we nearly elected Algore as president in this country. You are correct in saying that the LEO community does what the Mayor and city counsel directs them to do. I understand that. I lay the blame there, and at the feet of the people who elect those guys. I also fault the public for laying aside liberties in exchange for freedoms.

No need to start slinging “crap” around though
