I know many fine sworn LEOs.
Nearly all are good men and women.
But apologizing for thug behavior is disgusting.
We put much power and trust into LEOs and abuse is never acceptable, whether to defenseless man or defensless beast.
That kind of behavior must NEVER be excused or tolerated.
It is my experience that those who excuse the brutality are of the same ilk as the abusers they defend, for in their mind they must rationalize the irrational to justify their own thoughts and actions.
but that’s just my experience.

Quite right.
