I would like those cops who use their position of power to stop being bullies and harassing people they don't like. It isn't their job to pick and choose who deserves punishment. Their job is to protect all of us from those who would do us harm. And just because a law is "on the books" doesn't give them license to use the law against people.
If they actually feel as though their life is in danger, of course they have a right to protect themselves. We all do. But for them to use that argument as a defense whenever their ego is bruised or their sense of superiority is challenged is, I say, not a valid use of the law.

In light of the Daily O's top story today, I thought these should be shared. Olympia's finest hard at work!
