Chas.....if you end up with a bullet in your head does it matter if it got there by way of "abuse" or "incompetence?"
Perhaps you'll be interested in this case. Yes, the fucking cops in Seattle actually sued in federal court for the right to KEEP BEATING THE SHIT OUT OF PEOPLE.

They really do think they are above the law.

Quote:Federal judge dismisses Seattle police lawsuit challenging new use-of-force policy
Quote:U.S. judge on Monday dismissed a lawsuit by Seattle police officers challenging new rules restricting the department’s use of force, which they claimed could endanger both them and civilians.
More than 120 officers joined the lawsuit, which sought a complete dismantling of a new use of force policy hammered out between the Seattle Police Department and the U.S. Department of Justice to stem an alleged pattern of excessive force.
The officers’ lawsuit complained the revised rules, which went into effect this year, “unreasonably restrict and burden Plaintiffs’ right to use force reasonably required, to protect themselves and others from apparent harm and danger.”
They really do think they are above the law.
