After taking very long personality tests to become an officer, they pretty much weed out all except one personality, but they aren't all in the gang. Ever watch COPS? I swear I haven't seen one cop interviewed as to why he joined up who didn't answer "revenge" of one sort or another. Most are out to right the wrongs in their lives or of their friends/families lives, and you are the person who wronged them. Bullies who only see criminals; you're guilty before being proven innocent, more so these days when "terrorist" profiles include people who buy lots of alochol, rent apartments, or wear blue jeans. Yeah, that's some detailed profiling if you ask me.

Many have seen this picture where some police are being arrested only because they're not part of "the brotherhood" which would otherwise protect them:



What's the reason for gangs? Answer: drugs. Longer answer: prohibition. Nobody seems to remember prohibition against alcohol and what that led to, but some cops are waking up.

Law Enforcement Against Prohibition:
After nearly four decades of fueling the U.S. policy of a war on drugs with over a trillion tax dollars and 37 million arrests for nonviolent drug offenses, our confined population has quadrupled making building prisons the fastest growing industry in the United States. More than 2.2 million of our citizens are currently incarcerated and every year we arrest an additional 1.9 million more guaranteeing those prisons will be bursting at their seams. Every year we choose to continue this war will cost U.S. taxpayers another 69 billion dollars. Despite all the lives we have destroyed and all the money so ill spent, today illicit drugs are cheaper, more potent, and far easier to get than they were 35 years ago at the beginning of the war on drugs. Meanwhile, people continue dying in our streets while drug barons and terrorists continue to grow richer than ever before. We would suggest that this scenario must be the very definition of a failed public policy. This madness must cease!

Sadly, and I'm beating a dead horse here...but..

Cops are NOT bad.
People are bad. People are COPS.

The police forces recruit people with aggressive personalities. Practically fearless. People who aren't afraid of confrontation, violent encounters, drug enduced lunacy, child killers/rapers etc etc. Also, the heart to help ANYONE in trouble. Including those people they may have encountered under the above conditions.

Most police officers(especially in the old days) were borderline wife abusers as well..etc. But it was thought that Joe Honor roll, lacked the ability to handle most of the situations they would encounter.

Sadly, society has decayed to a point where teenagers kill other teenagers for control of a #ty borough that doesn't belong to them anyways. You can ride a greyhound bus minding your own business and some stranger can kill, dismember and eat you, for NO reason at all.

People have started to become un wired. Mounting stresses, responsibilities, fear mongering, an ever spreading (and unfiltered...yes unfiltered, every crazy on earth has access to ...) ability to spread their word via www.


This is just the tip of the iceberg. But they effect every person on earth.

I know, I was in that line of work. To HELP people, to UPHOLD laws (some of which didn't make sense), to contribute to removing the garbage that infects what could otherwise be a fantastic society. 99% of the people I worked with felt the same way.

I don't condone tasing a 10 year old girl. I don't condone beating people in the drunk tank, I don't condone arresting and detaining innocent people.

Some things that law enforcement see, is beyond what most people even imagine. Keeping that in mind, remember that "un wiring" thing?

Full circle
PEOPLE are cops.

Alright, honestly. I get tired of QQ about cops being abusive when someone resists. If you did nothing wrong, don't resist, and everything will be fine. If you do resist, they might use a taser. Get used to seeing it.

I see Apathy is widespread here on ATS too.

Great video, my teenage daughter and I watched it because she wants to become a cop. I thought it good for her to see what most are like.

Even here in OZ it is the same and has been for over 30 years, with the demise of the good-hearted local cop keeping watch for the people he is employed by and who pay his wages with their taxes.

You all NEED to remember the cops are Public Servants, and therefore You the People have a right to do something about it.

Whether you choose to do it by getting together and voicing your opinions via media, peaceful demonstration, letters to your Political Member.. flood them with mail, etc, is up to you. But, don't wait any longer folks, it has been left far too long already.

First thing to address is the picture from the L.A. Times ..
I am 99.999% that you don't understand what is being said in that article.
The police were not arrested only because they were not part of the brotherhood which would otherwise protect them.

The police officers that were arrested were arrested "Just like anyone else" would have been. They are not being protected because they are "part of a fraternity" or in "the brotherhood".

In other words .. The officers are being arrested because they committed a crime just like any other criminal would be. The fact that they officers of the law is not going make the charges go away just because they are "part of a fraternity" or in "the brotherhood".

That was the point that the article was making.

Reading something and comprehending what is being read are two totally different things.

Slow down, think rationally, and take the time to understand what is in front of you. I'm not attacking you personally. That comment is for everyone, including myself.

Just like some of the cops in that video, people have the tendancy to allow their rational thought processes to be clouded by personal emotional feelings for any given topic or situation that they feel a connection with.
