Even taking into account everything you get from the news and your personal accounts, you are still talking about a very small percentage of police officers. Eric, its pretty much the same as your feelings about homeschooling. You are judging a large group of people based on the words and actions of a few people in that group (and no, it is not more than a few - even though you keep trying to say it is). That is wrong and unfair. Period.
