The money paid or about to be paid is not enough for the unprovoked attack the police engaged in.

When police are above the law than illegals are the least of the problems.

Wow, sounds like the Northern border of Mexico.

Not yet: the LAPD on even a bad day are tyros (rookies) compared to the Mx Federales.........the latter are much more likely to shoot then maybe ask questions later.

a good friend of mine found that out the hard way.

Hard to believe not stopping for a Mordida would get you shot at.

That is something I do not understand about Mexico:

If the elite paid their policia, judges and everybody in between Gringo wages.........a lot of the (at least petty) corruption SOB would go away due to much higher quality potential recruits.

God knows that Mexico can afford it------------greedy bastards.

since this is a repeat thread...

ill repeat what i said.

"it was a peaceful demonstration till the rookie unorganized cops turned gestapo on the folks.
when officers use excessive force, and a court rules against them, there must be ramifications.
thats all it is.

anyhow go enjoy getting all bent out of shape about this. most of us aint worried about it. had the cops done their job the right way, we wouldnt be in this predicament.

LA cops (and those from surrounding depts like INGLEWOOD [where 3 unarmed innocent black and brown men were killed in as many months]) are notorious for excessive use of force. the depts has tried to train and retrain some of the cops, but there are just too many bad apples. too many hot heads.

i should know"

i hate that we gotta pay for this. so many times cops mess up. and because of their actions some fool is running around with tens of thousands of dollars!!! DAMMMMMM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i dont blame the protesters here. i blame the idiot cops.
blame the protesters? only an idiot would do that.
