When the police willfully break the law on video and then deny the event in writing, you know that you are dealing with a blatantly corrupt group of people.

About This Quote

In this day and age, the police force is under a great deal of scrutiny from citizens. It seems that there is a lack of accountability from within the ranks. With the release of the video footage of the man being beaten under a bridge, it has shown that there is a lack of respect for authority and a blatant disregard for the law. The use of force against this man was clearly inappropriate and should have been called out by many, including those within the police force themselves.

In this case, as in all others, people can easily judge based on their own experiences with the police. In other words, if you have had a positive experience with them, then you will say great things about them. If you have been mistreated by them, then you will do everything in your power to see them punished.
