“It bugs me. They are supposed to uphold the law, not break it. Off to jail they will go. Good riddance.”
Agreed. These kinds of actions are also extremely unfair to all of the hard working honest law enforcement people who put their lives on the line every day. The public unfortunately tends to paint with a broad brush, and good honest law enforcement officers will be hurt by the generalizations.

Yeah, show me some of those “hard-working, honest cops and I’ll buy dinner. The problem here is that somehow following the Constitution isn’t in their training manual these days. And the ole Sheriff is caught with egg on his face only because of the camera that was there to record the abuse. Ask yourself, in a flock of a dozen or more “officers,” why wasn’t there at least one who didn’t take part? Why wasn’t there a Sergeant or some other one level up type there to stop the free for all? I guess this guy is lucky, he’s still alive, unlike the guy in SC who was shot for having a broken tail light!
