Kind of reminds me of Waco. Could have picked up Koresh on almost any day when he left the compound to pick up the mail. Not quite flashy enough, so let’s get some of us, and a lot of them killed.
I’ve met two honest cops in 59 years, forgive me if I’m not churning at the bit to back the blue.
Exactly. The list of shit going sideways is quite long. And I have yet to see a “sanctioned” activity to catch bad guys that didn’t also get used against the innocent either through mistake or malice.
People forget that when they give the government power to use against the other guy, it can (and will) be used against them too.
At the end of the day cops are unionized government employees, same as at the DMV or the welfare office. Not all of them put in an honest day’s work.
