Hate to tell you robert, but if you read the Agitator regularly, and Reason as well, the reputation of law enforcement flew out the window a long time ago.
You know, it’s absolutely amazing how much more polite police are in places where common citizens carry weapons.
I’m originally from WV. Yeah, we had some jerks, but almost every interaction I EVER had with a police officer up there was either positive, or no more negative than dealing with any ordinary person.
Now I live in FL, and while the number of jerks seems to be higher, they still seem to be a lot less confrontational than the officers in that video.
I guess knowing that if you start offending people and being all “respect my authori-tah” you could be met with an equal amount of force causes most of them to stay in control.

These policemen are ruining the reputation of Law Enforcement. This is very bad for the country and civil life.

Law enforcement still has a reputation to ruin?
