Oh come on, you can't honestly expect to hold these “professionals” to the same standards you would civilians.

I mean these are the men who have the training and they face things very day that you and I just couldn't even begin to understand.

And since no officer has said it actually happened that way, you can't believe it actually happened that way, even if the 911 tapes corroborates the lies told by the family just so they can get a big payday, don't we owe these heroes, nay, SUPERHEROES one or two, or three, maybe four unjustified shootings?

Possibly five, I mean, man these guys are the only thing between you and the ravening hordes who will come into your home and shoot you in the back multiple times before dragging you out by your leg in front of your family while you are laying there bleeding to death.

Give a cop a break man.

That’s a great reply because the first thing the law and order conservative does is use fear to justify the necessity of having an armed and aggressive government presence. I say de-fund them and I have people tell me that our society will de generate into Somalia. So fear is the driving factor behind an aggressive and omnipresent police force. A police force that despises everyone who isn’t... Police.

Somewhat related

The Altamonte Springs Florida police force finally fired the buffoon (Master Policeman Maupin) that put 2 people in the hospital due to his 104 mph joyride while on duty and outside his jurisdiction that ended in him rear ending a Honda stopped at a light..

One person recovered but will no doubt have problems later in life from the crash ,, the other person is still in a COMA a year later..

Oh ,, the penalty for destroying 2 lives you ask? He got a ticket for not wearing his seat belt and was fired ... look out ... he'll no doubt get a job in your city next!

But then I guess that's OK because they really are better than us and we should all be thankful they're out there diligently fulfilling their ticket quotas.

Unfortunately, that is sometimes the attitude given here by some Freepers. While the police are unappreciated in a lot of ways, wearing a uniform doesn’t make them a hero or even decent all the time.
