Amen brother. People are conditioned to accept things as they are instead of the way they should be.
Corrupt Kentucky police officers

It's not just Kentucky. Bad police officers have been getting caught at an increasingly higher rate thanks to dash cams, body cams, doorbell cams, etc... Really makes you think about how easily they got away with things before cams were so widespread.

Those things have protected cops more than exposed corrupt cops. So many crappy lawsuits that would stir up the social media extremists are ended because video disputes the allegation of wrongdoing.It's not just Kentucky.

My son is at Bragg right now. I just finished reading "The Fort Bragg Cartel" really interesting read about the craziness that has/is happening there. And I thought Camp Lejuene was bad
The other bad part is the crooks and killers know when the men are gone. If a unit is deployed they know the man is usually gone. They use that advantage to hit homes with women and children.
Can you provide data on that to demonstrate that? My impression has been that there is less of it because of the cameras & fear of getting caught. Thanks.
I haven't come across a helpful officer of the law but a handful of times in 46 yrs. The entire system is corrupted by power and the desire for money to fund their schemes.
My only good police story was Derby Day my senior year of high school. I was extremely stupid back then and had a few friends even stupider than I was. Dosed up early in the day with acid (which we bought from a girl we went to school with whose parents later were arrested for a murder for hire but that’s a different story) and partied all day at multiple stops and were on the way home maybe a quarter of a mile from my house.
Got pulled over by a state trooper. Walked up to the car and asked if any of us were 21. The driver said no sir, and the cop shined his flashlight right down to the floorboard of the passenger seat where my buddy had put his open beer by his feet and he said “who’s beer is that then?”.
I was in the back starting to figure out how to explain to my parents I was in jail while the trooper pulled the driver out and gave him the field sobriety test and breathalyzer. No way he passed it and we were all under 21 any way.
He walks back to his car for a few minutes while we sat there terrified. Walks back up and hands the driver the paper part of the breathalyzer and says he better not see this on the side of the road and then tells us to go straight home. Then he pulls away.
We sit for about 20 seconds in silence and then proceeded to cheer like it was the final scene in an 80s movie. Felt like divine intervention.
Turns out (and we didn’t find this out until a few weeks later) that the trooper was banging my buddy the driver’s older sister. He recognized who my friend was when he saw his address and name and decided not to arrest us. Didn’t even make us pour out the beer. He told her about it later and they both laughed about it.
I do not condone those actions now, to be clear.

Yup. Big difference between Power and Authority. Being that they are armed, they have the Power to shoot us. However, in 99% of cases, they do not have the AUTHORITY to do so. Got some crooked ones in Georgetown too.
At 50,000 feet? Maybe. On the ground? Not even close.
Will Wade cannot wreck lives, take lives, take away liberty, or abuse rights.
I have cops in my family too, that doesn't translate to have gun, will travel being okay. I expect more rather than less from authority.
Why would the world be without cops?
Having standards and accountability doesn't mean there is no law enforcement, it means the law is being enforced.
I don't think much of him at all. I'm simply pointing out that once KSR took over this, we lost the paddock.
I’m more mad about losing the FB board. The paddock was okay, just hardly had any traffic.
So you are saying that crime should be held at different levels?
If your a cop and comment a crime, you are held to a higher standard?
Let me give you a insight to how fast a situation can go from, "get my taser" to "shooting" someone.
In high school, the base path for softball is 60 feet. The average high school girl can run this 60 feet in 3 seconds.
That translates to 20 feet a second; or broken down further, 2 feet every 1/10 of a second. We call that a stride.
Now, you are in a dark lit environment and someone is breaking the law, or someone called the police to report a suspicious person and you show up. You tell this person to stop and show their hands and they do not comply but start coming towards you,
You are in a rough neighborhood now, so what are you going to do when you might have at best, 1/10 of a second or less to make a decision to live or die.
I am betting you have no training whatsoever to even come close to making this decision.
Will Wade, teachers, anyone else who does wrong, has much longer to think about heir actions.
My point is, we turn our heads to this sort of crime but want to scold police when we have very little of the facts in a case or not in their shoes.
Crime is crime no matter who commits it.
Until the "good ones" stop covering for the "bad ones", I'm gonna be singing along with these guys.
None of those videos showed a guy in a dark alley acting suspicious rushing a cop. No one would even care if those guys were shot. Someone posted a video of A COP ACCUSING SOMEONE OF TEXTING WITH THEIR RIGHT HAND EVEN WHEN THE PERSON SHOWED THEY LITERALLY WERE MISSING A RIGHT HAND AND HE STILL GAVE HER A TICKET FOR TEXTING WITH HER RIGHT HAND.
