[quote=outtamojo]a whole room full of cops applauded when trump suggested being rough with suspects.[/quote]
i think the truth is, in our hearts, though we won’t admit it, we all like to see a little pretrial rough justice. it seems…just. we are not robots. neither are cops.
should not a bad violent man get a little ass whupping upon arrest? Would that violate your sense of justice? not law, not procedure, not the constitution…but your own sense of rightness…
if you can carefully look in your own heart to see if that feeling is in yourself…and i think it’s there, if just a little kernel of it…might it not also exist in a cop’s heart too?
and if we want it to stop, the penalty for doing it must be more than nothing. because that’s where we are at. this case, on video, national riots, worst case scenario–may walk. but the little ones, where they don’t die…
