I have been amused by the talking skillet heads on the telly who are talking about the need for police/police departments to reform and NOT use force when dealing with the public (criminals).

-----------

I don't know if getting tickets, being brought home by the police and being taken to the police station for an umpaid ticket counts as having experience with law enforcement counts.......but the answer to the problem of getting hassled by the cops is pretty easy. Don't be stupid - that is what I learned?

-------

Howard Stern had a tape of his father yelling at him - HS was screwing about and his dad tells him, "I told you not to be stupid, you moron".

There ya go, "don't be stupid" and you WILL NOT be arrested, thrown in jail, beat, tased, gassed, shot,beaten or killed?

----------------

The 'experts' on TV all spew the same BS about the police using too much force when they deal with the cops?

Why not concentrate of the stupidity that brings you in contact with the authoriies?

No one mentions HOW OR WHAT a person does to get the cops to show up.

----------

The problem is that society focuses on what happens after some idiot breaks the law.

One news outlet makes me laugh because they list all the recent deaths where the police/law officials are involved and never explain why the police showed up?

How's about reporting on the "victim's" actions beforehand?

------------

A stupid kid waving a fake pistol in a park gets killed by a PO.

What did the kid do to get the police to show up?

The media places NO RESPONSIBILITY on the idiot's actions BEFORE the incident. It's all the the Establishment's fault.

The establishment doesn't give the people jobs, schooling, integrated police forces and government - people talk about change - but wait for it to be handed to them.

------

Lastly?

The chuckleheaded lawyer that represents the brown family is a buffoon.

I love that his quest - poorly named after the 'gentle giant' - is to get ALL police officers to wear body cameras.

Maybe THAT will show the BS that officers have to put up with on a daily basis and really bring to light the stupidity of the people that they interact with on a daily basis?
