I am not defending the cops in the video. As I said:
“if the cops in the video had waited till the other half dozen who backed them up had gotten there, the guy MIGHT still be alive. Why they moved in I don’t know.”
What I object to is the making of sweeping, universal, negative statements about cops. A far as I’m concerned, GOOD cops are what is saving this country from being a Detroit from sea to shining sea.
Once the politicians take over the policing like they are doing in NYC, the country is doomed, or into revolution.
Curious, how close do you live to a large city? I lived near Chicago for most my life. Much different perspective on these sorts of things after living in the sticks for a while.
