There’s a lot of FR posters who don’t post to a thread until there’s a few dozen replies because they want to go along with the majority. Since a bunch of whiners running on emotion and no analysis hit the thread early, that’s about all you’ll see here. Most of the stories about cops on FR involve gross misconduct, so there’s a lot of prejudice up front before they even read the article.
I’ve sided against the cops on a whole lot of threads here, but I’m just not seeing the “sadistic power-drunk psycho” that nearly everybody else is. Oh well, they’re making the accusation so the burden of proof is on them.

So anyone who doesn’t agree with you is a whiner? You must be a cop cause your ego is obstructing your view. “I feel sorry for you.”
I know-I rarely post on these type threads because I really know facts, reason and analysis shouldn’t get in the way of good healthy “Jack Booted Revenue collecting out of control militatized, small p***sed power hungry psycho” rant.
Are there problems out there with police? Yup. Is the means to deal with them perfect? Nope. But unlike many believe, it is there, and works as well as many other in Government or private industry.
I don’t necessarily agree with many trends in LE and think those can be rationally discussed. Key word is rationally.
