They are held accountable only if someone has video. Otherwise it's a matter of he said she said, and who is a judge going to believe, that fine upstanding officer of the law, or you, you sorry bum.Blah blah blah blah blah.
C-FAGs war on cops is getting old and tired. There's 1,000,000 cops in America. Even 10,000 criminal cops would only make 1%.
And C-FAGS can't give me 10,000 bad cop links. Any population of humans has bad ones.
Why don't you want the bad ones to be stopped?
I do. But it's not a national crisis on the scale liberals make it out to be. These incidents are local issues.
Then when a cop is shown to be a bloodthirsty ass hole, quit defending him as if he just saved your kid from a car wreck.
He might just have done that, that being saved someone's child. I can't speak for all agencies, but those I'm familiar with do extensive background checks before offering a conditional offer of employment.
Once that offer is made and accepted the candidate receives a full physical and mental examination, at least two and sometimes three interviews, one usually by supervisors (Sgt's and an LT) in house, and one with LT's or Capt's from other agencies. The psychological evaluation is done by a Ph. D. psychologist who administer a battery of psychological tests and interviews the candidate twice, usually once before and once after reviewing the tests and speaking with the agency's HR Dept. This procedure is very expensive, but much less so than hiring a "blood thirsty ass hole" and giving him or her a gun.
There's more to the background than this ^^^, and yet some on this forum believe everyone ought to carry a gun. Only three out of every 100 persons who apply get through the entire background and receive an appointment. Even then they are on probation and can be terminated without any right to appeal as they are go through training with a field training officer.
This system isn't perfect, as has been shown too often in recent months. But the fact remains only a small minority of LE Officers violate their agencies use of force policies and they are held accountable.
That's your opinion, I offered my experience. I've been called worse than a "sorry bum", and never once lost my temper.
