9. What if they "thought" you, your parent or child were the one that...
killed a cop? Thats the whole point about this shit, you are supposed to be innocent and have an opportunity to prove your innocence because sometimes the police make mistakes. We have a system in place, if it needs changing then people that think like you should fight to change policy so the bad guys are punished after being found guilty. This whole beat people first thing has been going on forever and is getting worse along with allot of other police state shit, its the police officers way of showing he is pissed and he just gives his own justice without a trial. It happens allot in small crimes where the officer knows that the "perp" will get off and be right out, its their way of showing their frustration and if its good for them, is it good for the public to treat them that way?

If this is a good idea, then you are suggesting that when something like this happens, the public should go and beat or kill the officers before THEY themselves have been proven of any wrongdoing...I think thats a crazy way to handle the situation.

Obviously, you are already showing some signs of brainwashing or at least it sounds that way? Do you think that the judge was in the right to not have a jury trial and make the decision on his own for the officers that fired 50 bullets at an unarmed car and killing that guy in NY? Do you also think its ok that judges are telling coroners to omit the fact that a tazer was the cause of death in cases where people are dying from them?

I ask because I am curious of your thought process because of the way you answered to the post, it could be you worded it wrong but it certainly sounds like you are accepting to what is taking place in our country or just are oblivious to it?
