Damn it!!!, Homebase.. Another video that makes me question my own beliefs and hopes.. I want to believe that at least the Police are good, but watch this one...: www.liveleak.com/view?i=5ad_1251663926That video pisses me off, because I'm going for law enforcement as a career, and I don't want to be viewed at a thug!

Is there more to the story than meets the eye? I know cops can be loose cannons, but unless he rushed the judge, or something, this is unbelievable!

I watched the entire video! As difficult as it is to watch and see what can and does go on, it should be viewed by everyone!! I believe there are good and honest police officers, however I believe it is getting harder and harder to live with their conscience and continue doing what they know is right and stay safe. The nation has changed since you grew up and developed your ideals and views on the goodness of service and honor. Nobility and honor is now allegiance to the "cause" and your life is only as good as your cooperation - and that is only as long as you're needed. We live in a nation that the political power hires private contractors to do what they know American soldiers fighting for freedom and liberty wouldn't do because they really believe in the oath they took to the American Constitution and the preservation of life and liberty along with their right to protect their land and family. We have been sold wars on that principle because that is what Americans will fight for. Our laws have been consistently and lately swiftly changing to strip us of all civil liberties and constitutional rights to self protection and protection from unwarranted seizures and intrusion... in the name of "safety". Giving the Government as well as local law enforcement unlimited power and control. They are para military training police officers and desensitizing them to the realities of a suffering people. They are protected by their code of silence as well as the courts, which also have their pre-designated "cause" to protect. It is a dangerous nation we are living in right now, more so than I've ever seen, but then, I'm only about 60yrs old. LOL

Yea it was TV, but there was a bit o' truth to it. Just like there is the occasional bad apple in a department I imagine there's the occasional bad apple of a department.
