Not a good deal at all. Things are going to get worse before they get better, I'm afraid.



Next thing you know we'll be seeing videos and photos or reading reports
of police shooting, beating, tasing, stomping, and so forth, *unarmed*
citizens...and getting away with it. Oh, wait...


Oh how cute.

There's too much violence in this country on all sides.


Luckily, the unions will do all in their power to prevent punishment
of bad cops. The boys shooting the cops don't have such protection.
Shame, isn't it?



You apparently still do not understand that the job of a union like the
police unions is to protect its members and make sure they receive due
process. Oh, and my comment was about *unarmed* citizens. Did you miss
that?


I seem to recall union officials making pronouncements about innocence
well before any due process. I also recall folks right here making
pronouncements about guilt well before due process.

To help ensure due process is one thing. To proclaim innocence or
guilt is another.

There are times when 'unarmed' citizens may need shooting, tasing, or
other measures to preclude injury/death of the officer or bystanders.
