“What the hell is it with the cops in this country and their love of animal abuse?”
The job attracts many sadistic bullies so of course they love to torture animals. They do it to humans too anytime they can get away with it.
I know lots of cops and more than half laugh about doing this type of sh**. Probably even more talk about it in private. Keeps the job “exciting”.
Bullies and Misfits all.
A buddy indirectly works for ASP. He goes to gun and tactical stores to see what stock they need. Most people in that biz are former law enforcement so when he goes to these places it is not uncommon for cops who hang out to assume he’s ex pd. The things he tells me about these guys would turn your stomach. A common story is cops gleefully telling him they need a new baton because they beat a citizen so badly the old one broke. This may be a small sample size but until the “good” cops get rid of the bad ones they are all bad cops.
