Police become violent to OW in Melbourne, Aust.
#18
RE: Police become violent to OW in Melbourne, Aust.
The "pigs" belief comes from anyone who has considered, witnessed or otherwise understood the feeling of powerlessness when someone in authority exceeds their authority and commits abuses.

The fact that "cops are pigs" easily comes from cultural creations like the Blue Code of Silence (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_Code_of_Silence) , police brutality (Rodney King comes to mind) and the use of the police by the powerful (Hell, Steve Jobs could get the SFPD to raid on command!).

I respect them, the same way I'd respect a Piranha. Not too bright, but those fangs are dangerous.
Slave to the Patriarchy no more
