[Sherman Logan]

“We need to have some type of deterrent and real oversight to deter the police from violating the laws and to know they are not above the laws.”

Can't argue with that.

It's one thing to be wary of overzealous law officers and another to side with the virulently racist black panther organization. Want another bite at that apple?

[Fledermaus]

I won’t hold my breath for the days the Black Panthers realize they aren’t above the law.

[Fred Hayek]

Running at a police officer wielding a hatchet?

Sounds like suicide by cop to me.
Overzealous cops abusing power is one thing. I have to side with the police on this one.

[jazusamo]

This scum of the earth is using a cold blooded attacker to further his agenda and the two injured officers were not aggressive enough. Sadly one of the officers may die because of this animal and this scum that supports his violence.

[Paladin2]

Is he talking about H0lder and Bammy?

[DoughtyOne]

If you knew who would get appointed for oversight you sure would.

[jacquej]

I can argue with that!

To paint “the police” as law violators who think they are above the laws is a form of racism directed at an entire group of people who have a very difficult job, one that exposes them to the worst of humanity daily, and often causes them serious bodily harm and injury.

Any category of people include in their midst some individuals who abuse the public trust, be they police, lawyers, bankers, physicians, landlords, or clergy.

It is ignorant to condemn an entire category because of the “bad apples”.

It is wise to cull these from group by legal means, not by violence.
