Hey Earl, your right most cops are really good people that start out with the best of intentions...you know they want to, serve the public, reduce crime, stop the speeders and drunk drivers and of course get those drug users and perverts off the streets. I commend those that keep that goal in mind and I fully support them and appreciate their efforts.

Now with that being said, those few "Suspect Cops", that just want to have fun by ruffing up some stupid teenagers or hot rodder and the like...Hey, that's OK the kids got to learn to play safe and to get a long.

Now, there are some really strong minded Cops out there that experience a great day when they can just shoot something .... a dog, a gang members, an illegal person, or anyone that points something at them.
I have more than 30 years in working LA and some professional associations with the LA SWAT team and let me tell you, they do enjoy shooting the bad guys. I suppose it's just the job and being involved with the worst part of our population that make these guys feel the need to take the actions they take.
Earl, I'm not trying to "slam all law enforcement", but sometimes things get out of hand and people get hurt that shouldn't get hurt. I lived for over fifty years in Los Angeles and worked in association with many police officers..most are fine people, but a few are "shooters".

I guess I'm kind of tired of hearing about some of this crap. Bill
