"Coast to coast, police are killing people on the streets in record numbers.".........Have Cops gone wild?

Question

Source - ACLU citing FBI statistics - Examples are too numerous, (& outrageous) to list.

Answer 1

It SEEMS as though they're assuming this "cowboy" attitude as personified by the White House rodeo clown, Dubya, and his henchmen that consider themselves above the laws and morals they impose on the public... execute, shoot and bomb!

It's the disrespectful conduct and bully attitude that instills fear in the public so they can herd them like cattle; fear of those hired to protect us, who assume the "might is right and I have a gun and the government to protect me while I abuse you and your stupid rights" behavior... now the question is, WHO or WHAT protects us from them? They routinely disobey traffic lights, park on bus stops or fire-hydrants as they sit to a leisurly cup of coffee or lunch... they're rude to the average civilian without provocation, they come in pushing kids and young adults provoking a problem so they can have an excuse to arrest someone (believe me, I've seen this while waiting for a friend in front of my building and I've had to intervene to prevent a clean-cut neighbor, a college student, from getting arrested while waiting with me in front of the building, off to the side, not blocking the entrance or easement... but simply because he was standing there).

My son-in-law is a police officer, my best friend's son-in-law is also a police officer, and I trained 7 kids (5 now retired and 2 soon to retire), my brother-in-law is a retired Assistant Warden and my best friend's older brother is a retired Supervisor Corrections Officer... I also have several friends still in NYPD uniform and they're all against the lowered standards across the Nation to accept those who otherwise wouldn't get hired to clean toilets in a police precinct, who routinely abuse their authorities and brag how they cursed out a civilian or roughed up some kid... it's the fault of the meddling, bungling politicians who have no business meddling in matters they know nothing about (just as they've lowered the standards for entering teachers that can't even communicate in Standard American English and pretend to teach out kids... teach them what, I don't know!!!)

They sit around eating donuts and b/s-ing on their cell 'phones all day long (getting fat rear ends), and they claim to be overworked and under so much stress... stress? Over what...? Deciding whether to get jelly donuts or sugar sprinkled? Most of them sleep at night for 3-5 hours in their squad cars, for crying out loud! What's this nonsense of excusing them...? We should NOT tolerate incompetence or malfeasance from those authorized to carry weapons and entrusted with our safety and well-being! And if they think they're not paid enough, maybe they should learn to live within their means and in accordance with their paychecks like all other civil servants do! They go everywhere announcing that they're NYPC so they can get discounts at diners and restaurants and use their ID to get into movies free... and they don't even wait on line like other patrons... that's abuse of authority and should be reported every single time it happens but people are too intimidated by their aggressive conduct!

Those that are quick to pull out a gun at the slightest sign of a problem (they can't even communicate in common, everyday Standard American English... without mumbling and throwing in a half dozen "you-know, you-know" and "know-what-I-mean" in every single grunt they call a sentence) are the ones that cause the most civilian deaths. THAT would never happen if those same police officers had spent some time learning discipline and RESPECT in the Armed Services!

EDITED: [e-mail], I'm sorry to have to tell you this but... someone has been lying to you! They do not see all of this mayhem on a daily basis... just a few and not as often as you were led to believe. I know too many police personnel to let you believe that fairy tail they made up just to cry for yet another pay-raise. Oh, yes, and my daughter's baby-sitter's husband was also a police officer as was our nextdoor neighbor and good friend of mine (in addition to my son-in-law and my best friend's son-in-law and the 7 kids that I trained, and a handful of friends still in uniform, OK?)

Answer 2

Get a No Cost Background Check Scan at https://bitly.im/aNHCN

Its a sensible way to start. The site allows you to do a no cost scan simply to find out if any sort of data is in existence. A smaller analysis is done without cost. To get a detailed report its a modest payment.

You may not realize how many good reasons there are to try and find out more about the people around you. After all, whether you're talking about new friends, employees, doctors, caretakers for elderly family members, or even significant others, you, as a citizen, have a right to know whether the people you surround yourself with are who they say they are. This goes double in any situation that involves your children, which not only includes teachers and babysitters, but also scout masters, little league coaches and others. Bottom line, if you want to find out more about someone, you should perform a background check.

Answer 3

A cop has to make a split second decision regarding life or death. Everybody else has forever to judge their decisions. Cops haven't gone wild, however people's expectations and second guessing them has. If a cop hesitates he or someone else could get killed. Its not as easy a decision as non law enforcement people seem to think. The ACLU is good at stirring the pot except where its really needed.

Answer 4

As I've Stated; It's No longer " WE THE PEOPLE " It's now;
" WE WHO HOLD THE POWER " OR THE GUN" WE THE PEOPLE NEED TO TAKE BACK AMERICA AND ; Completely Impeach the whole of Washington and start over and let the New "Trusted" Politicians EARN their $$$$. We the people have and are losing more and more Rights to "We Who Hold The Power". So it's not just the Cops, It's GOVERNMENT and Big $$$$$ interest.

Answer 5

Well that might be true.
But, have you looked at the statistics of how many cops being killed by bad guys. (Only because the they can hardly use any force against an aggressor or they get in trouble.)
Policies had changed. Most police departments have a very strict guide line about, when and what force one can use against an aggressor.

Answer 6

The ACLU citing FBI statistics.?. Would that be considered Slander with no weblink or article cited?

Answer 7

You are right police have gone wild. it is about power and the fact that they think they have it. When men or woman put on the uniform they automatically believe that they have this magical power that they can not do any wrong.

Police these days have no respect for citizens. Now there is still some good cops left but not many.

Answer 8

Is this the same ACLU that backed the chick not raped by the Lacrosse team? I didn't recall hearing any recants......Don't believe everything you read by those people. They lie.

Answer 9

Police are suppose to protect and serve. Because of all the drug addicts, spouse killings and basic disrespect for law enforcement they have seen death too many times and know that it's their life or the perpertrators, sad but true.
