Perhaps think about the close to 1 million street cops in America and how unlikely it is for someone to be "murdered" by a police officer.

Perhaps a better solution is the pull the police out of the neighborhoods where they are not welcome and let those people deal with things for a while. See how that goes.

The last time I was harrassed by Agents.....I am SURE they were trying to goad me into doing something stupid. THEN, my arrest, or even better, my neutralization would have been totally justified.

The OP has a great point!!!

Yet, when/if something happens to you or your property, you are probably the first to call these "nazi, racist, cold-blooded crime-syndicate murderers" to protect you!
It still doesn't give you the right to denounce him like you did. I think you have been reading too much Twitter. If its okay for the pres then its okay for you.

However, if a cop ever asked me to perform a " field sobriety test" I would refuse.

I would agree to a breath test /blood test but no cop is going to put me thru a test like a trained monkey and each time I pass devising a more complicated test until I slightly fail and he gets his " ah hah" moment.

Some of those field sobriety tests people would fail when sober.

If you for sure want to end up in handcuffs and jail whether drunk or not, refuse to do the field sob.

I mean, can't we all agree that an Officer that doesn't shoot a bad guy once in awhile isn't really trying?

I agree, as no one should be murdered by anyone, it's against the law. There's a huge difference between murder and a justified shooting. Point a gun at a cop and get killed, that's not murder.

The murder rate of cops is on par with the rest of the nation, no more no less. They are after-all humans and perform like other humans.
