Do you have the same stance when a cop shoots an unarmed American citizen? It happens all the time. Usually the cop walks away Scot free. Is that justice being served?

yes, if a police shoots someone wrongfully, so murders someone and it is proven, then that cop must be prosecuted, jailed for life or face execution...I have always said so

I'm just coming from experience on this on Dr Alexander.

The cops in AZ are top notch,

But that not always the case, in the 1990s Clinton gave the cops far to much power.

Remember Waco Texas?

in Oregon the cops were mostly on the take,they'd pull you for no reason, and got so bad we called them Rasta Cops,because the were no better than what you'd expect in a Thrid World County 😉

Respect them yes,but that's a two way street.

It doesn't happen nearly as often as the media leads us to believe, it doesn't "happen all the time", given how many arrests there are and it's usually due to resisting arrest and engaging in physical violence. If a cop is unlawfully abusing his power, he should definitely be prosecuted and punished, accordingly. Bad cops do exist, but criminals outnumber them, by far.

in my experience the generalization that police in the USA are honest is accurate. Not so with the OPP up here in Canuckistan.
