DON'T DISS THE POLICE
I just saw the video of two police officers arresting an alleged drug
dealer using what some would say is excessive force. I say kudos to
the officers. If he is a drug dealer, he feeds the habit of people who
break into cars and homes, commit robbery and muggings of decent
people. Why would we treat him with dignity and respect when he
obviously did something to disrespect the officers in the first place?
Why would someone disrespect the officers by supplying a copy of the
tape to the media? Treating criminals with more respect than the
people protecting us is wrong.
