I saw the craziest thing today. I work at a local fast food restaurant. Our store is the same shopping center as a grocery store. I was working the
drive-thru today and I saw this man, tall looked to be in his 50's walk fast towards my window, coming from the Grocery store. Then I was saw 3 guys
running after him. They tackled him in front of my window, and one started punching him in the face. I started screaming for my manager and everyone
else so there were other witness. One of the guys in a black shirt had a police badge around his neck. I didn't notice it until the older man was
cuffed and stood up. Turns out he was a thief and had stole TWO pounds of hamburger meat. That cop roughed him up pretty bad. They put him in the
ambulance. (After about 30 minutes) After yelling to my fellow employees I pulled out my camera found and started snapping pictures. Only one came
out and I was just of them wrestling around on the ground. It seemed way overboard to hit that man like that. He was not resisting from what I could
tell. My fiance says it is going to get a lot worse. It is pretty sad when someone will risk going to jail for two pounds of hamburger meat.

Oh yeah, things are most definitely going to get a lot worse. In the months/years to come, as the economic downturn worsens, I expect to hear reports
of people being killed in the act of stealing food to feed themselves or their families. Unfortunately, many "peace" officers have way too much
power given their levels of intellect. It is rare that I encounter a police officer who posses a level of intelligence allowing him or her to think
outside of the box and use his or her discretion when dealing with a situation.

What do you think bullies want to be when they grow up? Give you one guess. Thats right police officers. Now I am not saying all police officers out
bad I know a few that I kick back a few drinks with. But there still is a lot of police officers who want the authority so thay can abuse it. Sorry if
I offend anyone, not my intention.
