(13,087 posts)I also think the majority of them are bullies and cowards.
They don't know the law.
They continue to ignore the law.
They are trained to view the public as the enemy.
They are trained their lives are more important than the publics lives.
I have been watching police body cams for about 8 months.
I hated them before I started watching the body cameras.
If at all possible, I now hate them even more.
Armed gangs in blue.

(21,044 posts)It was a trading program for youth interested in law enforcement. I started my sophomore year and wanted to quit in my senior year but my Dad wouldnt let me. Anyway some of the guys who were in that program were racist guys who would make bad comments about Black and Hispanic people. A program director once joked once saying the police department had members who wore white hoods, this was in the early 70s. Though the years I saw people who were in this program go on to be police officers with no college and only 18 months of training. Several I knew were really racist.
