Most cops become cops for the right reasons, like to help and serve the community, and I knew many of those types on the Chicago PD.
Unfortunately, some are power mad control freak sadists, aka Jack Booted Thugs. They see the Badge as the ticket to Power over people, a 'get out of jail free card' for abuse, and I knew 'one' of those too (a real assh*le for sure).
In the olden days the sadists used their Batons to excess, now it's the Taser. So yeah, maybe Congress should look into this, way too many are dying from this "non lethal weapon". But they're too busy trying to impeach Bush.
Yeah and trying to feed themselves at the hogtrough.
