Reigning in police abuse

If you've never shared one of our pages before, this is a good place to start.

Amazing to see this on a so-called mainstream new media outlet.

We really do have a problem with our police. Not all police officers of course and not all departments, but the trend is not good.

By the way, "massive firepower" is now the doctrine for most police departments. In other words, they know most of their officers couldn't hit the side of a barn (they don't want to train them and police don't want to be trained), so the idea now is to spray and pray.

The recent shooting in Miami was reckless in the extreme. 60 to 100 rounds fired at a car in the middle of the street in a crowded area. Inexcusable.

It was a miracle more innocent bystanders weren't hurt.
