You wanna know why cops are hated?

http://www.cnn.com/2006/US/12/18/nopd.shooting/index.htmlwtf, that's sick. Lining up like a firing range and shooting a mentally ill person in the back until he's dead as he's running. That's totally sick. BCB, I know you wouldn't do this, but if you ever do, I'm gonna kick your ass.EDIt: read this<div class='quotetop'>QUOTE </div><div class='quotemain'>A police department press release from October 4, 2005, said Madison, described as an unidentified gunman, was "confronted by a New Orleans Police officer. The suspect reached into his waist and turned toward the officer who fired one shot, fatally wounding him."When asked if Madison had a gun, Gaston said, "I didn't see any on him."No gun was found on Madison's body.An autopsy obtained previously by CNN and verified by the Orleans Parish Coroner said Madison suffered five gunshot wounds to his back and two in his shoulder.</div>

It's a few cops that ruin it and give a bad image to an entire department. You might have 3,000 cops in a department all of them are great people. And 1 or 2 does something stupid and gives them a bad image.

That should be stripped of thier badges and put in prison and then when they get out, have to work in a home for mentally challenged people

That's the same deal as people saying sh*t about Americans when the only person they know about is George Bush.I don't hate cops, I just think that sometimes boredom and stubborness can factor into their law-enforcing. This is cause majorly by extreme under-paying of police officers, something I think should be fixed a tad.

</div>Yeah, well I know they aren't. But everyone thinks they are because of things like this. That's why something needs to be done. Crack down on these guys.

It's impossible to crack down on every officer in every city in the country. Some guys definitely shouldn't be in the force that are, but there are many who have made a mistake or two and are still needed. 3. It's New Orleans.

That's just f*cking sick.....and why is this just coming out now if it happend right after Katrina?

 

[BrewCityBuck]

Alright, first off, why is everyone believing this one witness? It's one witnesses account of what happened. It's the witnesses word against the cops word.

Ugh.

Ugh.</div>So the cops have better word than normal people huh? because they're above the law, right?The guy had like 6 bullets in his back, BCB. The coppers said they shot him while he was facing them looking to shoot them. Not to mention the guy was unarmed.

Was this incident at night/evening or during the day?
