What's up with the cops these days?

Are the police getting too big for their breeches these days?

'Secret' law lets police arrest for failing to show ID near summit (http://www.ottawacitizen.com/news/Secret+lets+police+arrest+failing+show+near+summit/3201082/story.html)

This is already on top of the little girl getting shot.

Also, it sounds more and more like standard police procedure these days to shoot a man's dog upon entering his house.

What Sayeth the Mob?

Ok, lets over look the fact that it was a G8 and G20 meeting. Lets over look the fact that security gets beefed up when dignitaries from countries all show up at one place. Lets over look the fact that the whole ID law and "searches" were being conducted with in 5 meters of the security zone.

I often wonder what society would say if someone walked up and shot a dignitary due to lack of security. Oh wait that happened to Reagan.

Just wait till they require ID and conduct searches at our borders.

I have nothing in regards to the 86 y/o granny. but everyone thinks of a granny and thinks old and skinny and feable. Just like when we hear cop tazers juvenile, we all get a picture of some small kid getting tazered by some big cop.

Little do people realize some kids adult size. Stafford tazered a 14 yr old who was 6ft. 3inch and 280lbs.

On a side note, sometimes the dog wins and the cop loses.

I hear sometimes pepper spray works on dogs and sometimes it just makes them more mad. Some departments I hear don't have tazers, which leaves using the hand gun against a dog that tries to attack.

It's crazy how the civil libertarians love increases in police power. Tyranny always comes from your local police officer not some philosophical hypothetical struggle between feds and state.

these days? shit, they've outgrown them long ago

it's no longer about providing a safe community, it's about sting operations, revenue, and the like

there are much better ways to help "clean up" societies than to just arrest everybody for everything.. one little misdemeanor can haunt you for a long time, it's a damn shame that the courts and police are out to ruin lives

Let's look over the fact that civilians were not alerted to the new law.

Yeah I remember this one time this woman adjusted her walker and one of the tennis balls got a few inches closer to me so I clotheslined her. Maybe read the article.

LOL. Seriously. If the facts in the article are even close to the truth, those cops should be fired and prosecuted for assault. She "took a more aggressive posture in bed" ???? LOL. She's 86, on bed rest, and on oxygen. Unfuckingbelievable.

Seriously.. a bowel movement could create a more "aggressive" posture.
