Sure, and it is meaningless in the big picture. If we find people exercising bad judgment we need to address it individually not trash everyone or the whole system. I'm not a cheerleader, just a realist. We ask regular people to do a very hard job. You are bound to have circumstances where mistakes are made. I personally have experienced police behavior that I objected to. But I don't know of any better system, so the answer has to be to address issues as you find them and not to get all chicken little about it.

There are places in the inner cities that have your attitude. I don't see them as more attractive places to live than other communites that support their police force. As flawed as its application may be at times, the rule of law is perhaps the biggest thing to me that separates palces I want to live from those I don't.
