They should know the laws they are entrusted to enforce.

They have complete control over the population.

What we have, are police who are held to no standard at all.

What we have are police that hate and disrespect the very people they are policing.

What we have are blatant in your face racists.

I feared for my life is their stay out of jail card.

I feared for my life is the excuse they use for their unlawful behavior.

It appears that the few bad apples have ruined the entire barrel.
