But if they are not going to fire these officers, what needs to happen is when these police departments are forced to pay settlements, the offending officers’ paychecks should be docked. That will get their attention.
I used to think so and perhaps it would reduce the number of occurrences.
Cops beating someone or shooting the wrong person wont care.
Put cameras on all of them an run them all the time.
And failing that, multimillion dollar lawsuit judgments need to continue to be awarded.
Why? Because idiot voters (absolutely including a large number of Freepers) are too damned stupid to understand that they have a duty to install an administration that will not abuse law enforcement authority...until they are properly reminded through their pocketbooks.
