This community will never lack for posts like this until one day the police profession is strictly regulated with recurring training, minimum entry qualifications, and ongoing behavior requirements. The badge attracts a disproportionate amount of angry beta males, conservative whackjobs, racist power trippers, militia morons, traumatized veterans, and people too dumb to learn a trade. They can’t fire them when they misbehave because there wouldn’t be enough police left. So instead they have circled the wagons and become a closed organization. The catch phrase “to serve and protect” is actually referring to their own. A good old boys club where the first rule is “what happens within the force stays within the force.” You can go on reading these posts everyday, til the end of time wondering if it will change. It won’t. Yea once in a while one of em will be forced to resign or fired if their actions go viral, but they’re learning just to shut their body cams off when they want to plant evidence, assault someone, or execute someone. For the most part it is and will remain a lawless faction of American society beholden to no one and no law.
