This is from my hometown in Long Island. Cops in my town are the second highest paid in the nation. They barely see any crime so how do they pass their time? By going on power-rides and giving us teenagers tickes for no reason.
I swear to god send these power hungry cops to bootcamp and then will learn what discipline and honor really is.
They think just because they have the gun and the badge they are so amazing. I mean cops in my town get paid 100k+. WHERE IN THIS WHOLE NATION WILL YOU SEE THAT A COP GETS PAID THAT MUCH? SHOOT YOU DONT EVEN NEED TO GO TO COLLEGE. you just need a high school diploma.

Cops are so annoying because teenagers are so annoying! Again, another generalized statement which is biased and opinionated.
As a teenager, the wet is still dripping from behind your ears. After serving 20 years in the Air Force as a law enforcement specialist, and the past 15 years in civilian law enforcement, I can say I have the education, training, and ability to distinguish between adult educated conversation and teenage rhetoric.
After reading the story, I agree that there's more to the story. This is not to say that the police did or didn't use excessive force...but just that...there's more to the story.
For you to lambast an entire profession based upon the alleged activities of three officers...is a pathetic attempt to show something you lack...good reading and critical thinking skills.
After you've served this country long enough to get your military retirement and held the position of law enforcement officer as long as I have....wipe the snot from your nose and come see me...and tell me I have no honor, integrity, college education, or otherwise!

Alright, I read the article and the police seemed to have used excessive force for littering. But I cannot see lumping the whole force into this group. Even if things are exactly as they appear in the article, I can not condone accusing the whole police force of the crime or using strong arm tactics because of the actions of a few.
No where in the article did it say anything other than the injuries to the victim. It did not state what they did to bring this on. Were they combative or belligerent? We don't know. But even so I think something could have been done before they ruptured his bladder.

Many Pit Bull bans should you learn the exceptional print incorporate a variety of bully breeds now not simply Pit bulls (terriers). Breeds probably integrated are American Bulldogs, Stratfordshire Bull Terriers, American Stratfordshire Bull Terriers, and every now and then cane corsos. You can ask to look the special written through-regulation to verify if the ban is inclusive of different bully breeds as good. My provinces Pit Bull ban and plenty of different ones probably seem like this: Under the amendments to DOLA, pit bull is outlined as: A pit bull terrier A Staffordshire bull terrier An American Staffordshire terrier An American pit bull terrier A puppy that has an look and bodily features greatly very similar to any of the ones puppies. American Bulldog might fall below the rediculously dull final facet of the regulation. ADD: I agree you will have to combat it. BSL's had been thrown out in a few locations after homeowners have fought it. Get him temperament validated, CGC tittled, testamonies from vets, running shoes, and bevaviorists, and touch a well legal professional. The whole inspiration that puppies are estate and now not loved ones contributors and as such may also be banned is rediculous. Good success

While I tend to agree that they used excessive force, Fox is just not reliable as a resource. I didn't see anywhere in that article as to what the exact circumstances were. All that I could see was "cops" "beating" "hospital" and "charged." There was no more to the story. Was this guy carrying a weapon? Was he on drugs? What was really going on. It's hard to believe cops would just beat someone up for absolutely no reason. I'm not condoning their behavior in the least, but I always like to know the full story.

the media can bend the news to whatever will make the viewers watch. that being said remember that their are two sides to every story. I hear that you are upset, and if you are that upset complain to the local police department. Venting here will change nothing. If the officer(s) are in the wrong, you will be doing the city justice. There are piss poor officers in this world, the majority however are good and decent people.

SOME cops are annoying, just like SOME boys like you are immature, and spoiled. Authority will always be around, GET OVER IT, AND MOVE ON.

This can't be the whole story. I do think you're right. They do need more training, and at least two years of college.

Anyone that doesn't realize we are living in a police state, and have been for years, has a problem with facing reality.

Cops don't just beat people... If they were drunk and belligerent and getting physical the they have to do what they have to do. Thing don't start out that way but they might escalate.
