[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1428742, member: 9096"] I think it's a bit of both.. social media and technology certainly make the stories reach us, but I am thinking they're getting more common as well... I think the judicial system is partly to blame when the officers repeatedly get off without any disciplinary action against them... I think if it happened 30 or more years ago, the chief of police, if no one else would hang the guy out to dry. GB.. some of the cases you present there are just baffling.. seriously, a guy who's supposedly sleeping needs to be shot 14 times??? How bad a shot are you? On that LA shooting posted earlier.. I'd say the primary person in charge should face the most scrutiny... who said "I found that truck that was stolen" (or whatever reason they were looking for it)... which officer opened fire first? I do support LEO's, but without the bad apples getting thrown out, the bunch will get spoiled. I don't know if you heard of the taser incident at the Vancouver Airport about 10 years ago.. A Polish man, who didn't speak English was here to see his mother, There was some paperwork malfunction, but the long and the short of it is he was frustrated and couldn't even go have a cigarette anywhere, or call his mother.. End result is that 4 of Vancouver's finest tasered him repeatedly and he died of a heart attack... One of those officers was transferred to my town [/QUOTE]
