As far as I'm concerned, anything the police say (post Waco and Ruby Ridge) is a lie until they prove otherwise.

Oh, were the police at Waco and Ruby Ridge?? That was THEIR fault? I thought that was the FBI and ATF! Gee, I'd better get my facts straight, hunh?

This kid is completely innocent of anything until I see the tape showing him squashing the cop's nuts.

Of "anything"? You need a tape now to clear a US citizen and peace officer if he's accused of a crime? Great, two different standards constitutionally for cops and civilians. Sounds fair to me.

They've already demonstrated thay they are liars (police, FBI and BATF). If I were a judge I'd disallow testimony from law enforcement unless they had objective proof (i.e., videotape) of whatever they had to say.

Yes, two different standards. Because if cops were to be judged by the same standards as an ordinary civilian, they'd be given the same rights and privileges. But they aren't and haven't. A cop isn't a civilian and should not be judged as such.
