2. The comments posted by policeone members are interesting

The prevailing attitude seems to be that, because they are police officers and their jobs are so difficult, they are automatically right and no one should question their authority to do as they see fit.

Well excuse me, Mr. police officer, sir! Your job is supposed to be difficult. If you don't like that, get out. Get a different job.

We, the people, pay your salaries. And we know that protecting a person's rights while protecting lives is complicated, messy and, yes, anything but easy. We expect it. It's why we hold you in such high esteem when you do it right.

3. the cops need to remember that they are public servants. They work for We, the People

and that does not entitle them to act in whatever manner they choose.

4. The pigs' attorney criticizes Democracy Now for not attending the "media training" prior to the RNC.

"Thirteen thousand journalists were at the RNC, and they got it right."

So did the embedded "journalists" in Iraq who broadcast Bush's victorious victories. :puke:

5. It is important to see how the "higher ups" think about us.
