I'm getting WAY sick of seeing cops attack journalists

[Cirque du So-What]

1. They're pushing the envelope

They know that TPTB have their backs when it comes to meaningful reform and that only the most egregious of abuses will get prosecuted...and even then only grudgingly.

6. +1, they're way passe pushing. The number of videos have been put in a database to show

... Americans that there is a culture of thug among too many PD's vs just a couple of bad apples.

2. I'm sick of them attacking people in general.

They don’t even pretend to be doing the right thing.

4. I believe the attacks, by police, on journalists is a direct result of trump's rhetoric

Shortly after assuming office in January 2017, President Donald Trump accused the press of being an “enemy of the American people.” Attacks on the media had been a hallmark of Trump’s presidential campaign, but this charge marked a dramatic turning point: language like this ventured into dangerous territory. Twentieth-century dictators—notably, Stalin, Hitler, and Mao—had all denounced their critics, especially the press, as “enemies of the people.” Their goal was to delegitimize the work of the press as “fake news” and create confusion in the public mind about what’s real and what isn’t; what can be trusted and what can’t be.
