"Why don't we LEO's start trashing some of you idiots and your work you do?"
I take this one.
We have two examples of "Law Enforcement Professionalism" currently here is Georgia.
First, a gentleman here is facing obstruction of justice charges. What did he do? You see, he came upon an accident where a child had collided his motorcycle with a truck. The gentleman moved the motorbike out of the way and climbed under the truck to comfort the dying boy. It seems the broken radiator was leaking hot fluid on the child. Along comes Barney Fife, who says the "crime scene" has been "molested" and charges the man.
Second, one night few years ago in a small town here one of the two cops got shot. When "backup" arrived, the injured cop said a man in a nearby home had done the deed. Soon the entire on duty sheriff's office, and nearby State Police surrounded the home of the "prep". Calls on a loudspeaker went unanswered. Soon an "entry team" went in. THEY HAD TO WAKE THE GUY UP IN HIS BED!
Remember that.
The poor guy was jailed for several months without bond. Meanwhile the rental home was cleared of his property.
The state crime lab began an investigation and determined Barney Fife 2 had shot himself. The innocent citizen was released and the "Law Enforcement Professional" was arrested.
Now, 20 or some "professionals" were on the scene that night. Did not one find it just a little strange the "attempted cop killer" had gone right home and went fast asleep after the crime? We're not talking rocket science here folks.
Happily, this sad tale has a happy ending. Our citizen has sued the town, the mayor of the town, the police chief, the sheriff, every on duty deputy that night, the jailers, the county, the State Police, every State Police officer on duty that night for a total of $60 million in Federal Court.
May he get every single penny and take everything these "Law Enforcement Professionals" have including digging up the grass in their yards and selling that!
Now, what was that you were saying about a negative view?
