There may be a few good cops, and I know they convince themselves of this, but what they don't get is that its the entire police structure that is the problem!
They act like zoo keepers more than anythig else and then wonder why the public barks at them. sorry - these cops, ALL OF THEM! are paid by the taxpayer and should treat those who pay their salaries, pensions, health care, etc, as a paying customer and and show a littl damn respect.
And this whole nonsense of "officer safety" trumping everything else is also getting way out of control too. I know it sounds harsh, but sorry, peoples' rights under the US const. come first. If a cop or other govt worker is notprepared to accept those risks, dont take the job.
