granted, when one of their own is hit they get a little angry, but this is nuts.
unconscious, come on. that's just pathetic. sadly, police brutality is a historical tradition in the states.
I've meet police in 5 countries now, and can say that only in the states was i ever afraid. it's an attitude, i could go on forever about this, but i will basically say the role of law enforcement has changed from protector to punisher, and they've picked up that role and ran with it.
