Is it right? No! These guys especially in the big cities see the flagrant disreguard for public safety and absolutely no remorse day in and day out. It takes its toll on all cops. You can't help but become hard. When you deal with the dredge of the earth and see little kids shot, beaten, raped, etc., you look at some of these people and think they serve no purpose and never will. The laws protect their rights, but not yours. Not everyone has to see a 4 month old baby that has been shot in the back of the head and the mother laying 10 ft. away shot in the head also. The boyfriend says " I give up, I got rights"! I am sure everyone in the video has been through it all also many time over. We have lost our streets to scum and bangers. Decent people have to keep their kids out of parks and Walmart stores. The only answer is open season. There are a lot of good people and kids out there only cops don't get to deal with them much. Again do I think it justified to react like that? No! Do I understand snaping like that? Yes! Do I miss it? Hell no! Sorry for the rant, but someone asked!
No apologies needed there. That has got to be one of the toughest jobs out there.
