And neither do most of you. There is no offense of "conduct unbecoming a police officer." There IS a Uniform Code of Military Justice article of "Conduct Unbecoming an Officer," but that is an entirely different code of laws. Stop watching TV and start researching the law if you're going to spout off about something so blatantly obvious to those who basic knowledge.

I watched the video and cannot see how any of you are so pissed off at what happened. It's a grainy film of something that happened at night, and you can't even see the suspects. I'd be the first one to call for the police officer's badge and see him sent to prison if his actions were clear. His actions and the actions of the suspects were not clear. We should reserve judgment on this until all of the facts become clear in a court of law.

And seriously, are we "real close to a reckoning in this country?" That's the most absurd statement I've read on this entire forum. Do you seriously want to know what happens when there are no police officers to protect you? Obviously you don't know what police do every single day that directly benefits the good citizens of this country. Give me a break.
