The head of the Fraternal Order of Police, Executive Director Jim Pasco, is a thug. Just like ghetto gang bangers are thugs, except his gang colors are blue. He is now threatening filmmaker Quentin Tarantino for criticizing police shootings of unarmed people (the most recent of which was a 6 year old autistic boy in Louisiana).
We need thugs in blue to take care of the thugs who aren’t wearing blue, but we need them to prey on *other* thugs, not on unarmed people or random mouthy film-makers. Seems to me too many police officers seem to have forgotten what their job is and who they’re working for. They seem to think they’re more important than the citizens they’re supposed to serve and protect. But they’re still dependent upon those citizens for the salaries they get, so I think they might get a nasty surprise in the end if they decide to take it up a notch and start killing even more unarmed citizenry. Americans may be docile sheep, but even sheep can be dangerous if you rile them enough.
Hint: One of my friends lives in a city that actually voted to disincorporate itself when the city police department decided to create a thugocracy with one of their own as mayor. And they did. And every single one of those police officers is now unemployed, as are all the politicians who enabled their behavior. The people in the city now pay their taxes to the county, and the Sheriff’s Department now patrols their streets. At some point they might re-incorporate and hire an all-new police department. Or maybe not. But they certainly dealt with their thugs in blue in a quite decided manner once they finally got pissed enough.

Good on them. Just saw this – guy was shot twice in the back I believe while being tasered. Cop was found innocent.

Even without sound it is very much like an execution.
