It's amusing that you feel the need to post multiple replies to one of my post. Just to make myself clear, my issue is, first, that law enforcement is above the law, unaccountable and investigates themselves. Secondly, law enforcement is assaulting, raping and killing totally INNOCENT Americans on a regular basis! And people like you excuse that! It's bad enough that they become judge, jury and executioner of yet-to-be-tried citizens, but to attack innocent Americans is beyond the pale! Then they lie, cover for each other, and whatever it takes to protect their comrades!

I have a nephew that is a cop. I refuse to even talk to him. It takes a sociopathic piece of filth to be a cop these days!

and you constantly say the same thing over and over and over again, but the key words are law enforcement! You mean to tell me, you actually believe that ALL of Law Enforcement is above the law, unaccountable, rapes, and kills?

My God, you are just unable to grasp how ridiculous you sound and is beyond amusing! Literally hysterically funny.

I do think it should become mandatory for every Police Officer to wear on uniform cameras now...and have them on at all times while on duty...then you will know exactly what each officer faces...and then it will be cut and dry if a shooting is justified or not.
See, that's the rub as those cameras have to be turned on and off. They have to pay for storing that video, and it is quite expensive, so there won't be non-stop recording 24/7 of what EVERY cop does day to day. That's decades away, if ever.

They'll leave gaps in their own surveillance because it protects them.

P.S. I think the grand jury will probably elect not to charge the officer in Ferguson. Regardless of how it gets spun, the dude attacked the officer violently after robbing a store. He was a violent thug, not the sweet little teddy bear his mom claimed him to be.

So somehow he deserved to be physically assaulted and beaten to death? You're right, that if police were to switch to plain clothes, cases like this would only get worse, and then liberals would blame the police for not properly identifying themselves.
True teenagers do stupid things, in his case it got him killed. Correct he had no business stopping or questioning anyone he has not legal rights to do so and should have not even been there because the Police told him to stop following the kid. The evidence does not match what I know about such incidents that kid must have been awfully weak from what I saw. Water under the bridge.
Actually I agree with your original reply in that everyone being plain clothes would create even more problems.

The Grand Jury is a government advocate.

Speaking of sociopathic pieces of filth, and lets not forget to throw in some racism to round out the full personality. Those that cheer on cop killers and attack people based simply on their color have no room to critic others when it comes to morals or the ability to think rationally.

yanno, I sit here and read this and all I can do is shake my head....it is so hard for me to believe that human beings can actually rationalize like this, and I feel very sorry for you. What you accuse and point fingers at, you are....did you know that...seriously, you need to get counseling.

You didn't think that through.... The trap was set and you fell right in.

The Police State is more of a danger to the people of the USA, than ISIS or EBOLA.
The statistics are there to make the point.
Just because Mellisa Harris Perry is a MSNBC personality, doesn't mean she is always wrong.

Don't know about you, but they are not a danger to me. I obey the law. If I ever get pulled over, I am respectful and provide the information that the officer requests, because I have nothing to hide.

Wonder why they are a danger to some people????

Because they try using the same attitude they display here with police officers and get in trouble, my guess is a few of them here have had more than one brush with the law and lost, hence their "attitude".
