And you don't sound biased at all


I've never hidden my bias towards cops. They have entirely too much power, and are given way too much leeway in these scenarios. Not to mention a lenghty history of covering up their misdeeds in their internal investigations.

There have been stories posted here where I supported the cops' actions 100%. This one doesn't look like one of those stories though.

You sound like a typical sheeple of the media who only highlights the handful of bad incidents that occur with police officers when we can look at far more that have had positive results.
