Remember, its a small problem. Not all cops are guilty...Right.

its either cause your so easy to get along with   or else you'll be labeled a lackey. i got along with em ok too and thats funny since quite a few times they were cuffing me. but i bet if i try i can imagine a scenario and draw lots of tin foil wearing heros to the scene

oh i think you understand fine. pretending not too is safer though, for you and thr judge. if you ever come do the tourist thing in dc let me know i'll take you where tour mobile won't  and i don't go some places any more

One of us isn't making sense.

I don't understand this problem some of you have with cops.  I get along with them fine, on the few occasions we even have any interaction.

most of the time, citizen interaction with cops goes OK.

the problem comes when cops engage in misconduct. its not all that common, but it is not rare either. the problem is that with any other entity there is a means by which you can make a complaint and there is a good chance you will get a fair hearing on your complaint with a reasonable expectation that something appropriate will be done. that expectation just does not exist in the case of potential LE misconduct, especially in certain jurisdictions.

you mean like complaining about a doctor  or lawyer  or politician>? or anyone with a good union

2, 3 , or more wrongs somehow make a right?

Every other profession does it so it must be ok?

Really, that's your argument?

i guess i needed to cut and paste this in to show what i was responding to

"with any other entity there is a means by which you can make a complaint and there is a good chance you will get a fair hearing on your complaint with a reasonable expectation that something appropriate will be done"
