Sickening
I undestood the idea was to protect and serve not to beat and terrorize. And folks wonder why so many (even those who abide by the law) have problems with law enforcement agencies.
This is as apalling as the King trials and does little to alleviate the allegations of racism in the bayou by law enforcement and government agents. Too bad we didn't have a DOJ with integrity at least there might have been the possibility of civil rights case but as we all know the whole idea of civil rights is little more than an after-thought these days. Well here's to hoping there is a god and these jackasses (and all their kind) get what's coming to them in the end. Obviously not all law enforcement officers are criminal but it sure does little to boost their image when those that are continue to be protected by the boys in blue and their buddies on the bench.
