Exactly my point, thank you.

I live in Charlotte. The only reason I can think of for a local station in the DC area to run this story, AFTER EDITING THE SECURITY VIDEO, is to continue the propaganda “Cops bad” line.

There should be a Conservatism 101 course in which one of the first lessons taught is that the news media is NOT about sharing information, it’s about perpetuating an agenda.

Anyone who watches this story and finds themselves with an obligatory, knee-jerk reaction of anger towards some “evil officers!” is having their emotions manipulated by the media, plain and simple.

I agree. And that applies to a lot more than just police stories. This cop may have abused the use of the tazer, but we certainly cannot trust the mainstream media to give us enough information to make that determination.

I’ve never quite understood the widespread hatred of cops at FreeRepublic.
