The Police Chief, The Mayor, The District Attorney, A Federal Judge
And other elected officials refused to release this tape of Police beating a teenager.
This is the kind of behavior that leads to distrust of authority - when those in position of over sight turn a blind eye to criminals withing their own ranks.
An Egyptian friend of mine confided in me this is the long standing problem in Egypt - he went to law school only to see that the only justice in Egypt was to the highest bidder. I told him it really doesn't sound much different from the American court system.
Both the police beating tape wherein there are thousands of on you tube - and other sites - the cover up and then the lack of or no charges filed against the tyranny of the status quo upholding the corruption and malicious behavior of their agents.
I am not saying all cops are bad but those in position of our trust will never really protect the citizens unless they are exposed and put on the spot and on trial of public opinion.
Police brutality must stop and cops need to be held accountable for criminal behavior.
My thoughts for the day :).
