This is EXACTLY why we as police are frustrated. EVERYTHING comes down to us. Even "bullying" on social media. Mental illness. Drug and alcohol abuse. Pretty much everything. Then, when the public doesn't like how it is handled, we get hung out to dry. That's what this is, bullying. Call it "racial this" or "racial that" or harassment (which typically is not a one time behavior, it is repeated) or whatever you want, but now we get to police social media every time someone gets their feelings hurt.
The kid beat the other kids ass. Call it good.
Youre frustrated about doing your job? That sounds like a serious personal issue. When you signed up did they promise you the laws would never change? Your job is to arrest people that commit crimes when its all said and summarized. You dont get to determine how you do that job. You do it according to the procedure set forth by your dept. If your departments procedure is shitty then you voice your concerns and try to get them changed. However, you maintain your professionalism and do what you were hired to do.
I personally dont have a problem with the kid that was harrassed beating the other kids ass. However, what if the kid doing the harassing is a 275lb all state linebacker in high school and the kid being harassed is a 130lb science class nerd?
It isn't about the laws changing. It is about federal and state governments reducing funding on mental health, drug and alcohol programs, and prisons. Guess what that equals? Cops get to repeatedly deal with mentally ill alcoholics and meth addicts because the rest of the system is failing. We arrest them, they release them, we arrest them, they release them, eventually things go south and we end up shooting them. Then who takes all the shit for it? Yes, the police.
So, yes I am fucking frustrated. And it ain't just me. This is countrywide Take it from the former Chief in Dallas:
