Go to Mexico.
    So you served? Meaning what? That you got paid to serve the interests of the very few who reap the benefits? So you went into a country and did what exactly? My brother is in the military and it is a job, that's all. We are not protecting our country from the Nazis so no kudos from me.

If we are so horrible why do people flood across the border into our country? Why is the USA the biggest bad a** in NATO and the UN? Why are we the biggest best force out there? Seems as if we have gotten away from our work hard roots.
    This is a isolated incident where yes it was bad but don't start assuming the whole country is this way. And if it really bothers you that much you would deny your citizenship (by being ashamed of being American) on a isolated incident then you have lost sight of the whole picture.
    The only reason you say this is because of a foreign countries article on some bad cops in the USA. Don't lump that into the whole category of being American.
    It's the people who are not satisfied with the status quo that make the sacrifices and push for a change for the better. So in this instance your attitude is fueling the complacency of the masses. Go look at any of the uprising countries; the ones protesting are the ones who matter.

    You don't leave a country if you disagree with a few things; you vote to change the way things are done.

    how did i say anything about being stisified with the status quo? my point was to not take this isolated incident and judge the whole country on it.
    You don't leave a country if you disagree with a few things; you vote to change the way things are doneif you have faith in the ones you vote for, and they dont have seperate interests.

    These 6 cvnts have been on a force of how many for how long? If a cop on a metropolitan police force is not involved in abuses, then they know of and protect others who are. Enough excuses. There are next to no "good" cops out there IMO, mostly just bad ones and complacent ones.

    It was heated, to say the least. The mayor is a joke.... an inept and incompetent man. How he was elected is beyond me.

    LMAO!! I hope you are joking. You're probably the guy that says shit along the lines of "They are over there 'fighting for our freedom' (which isn't really true, YOU guys are invading OTHER PEOPLE'S freedom), what are you doing?!"

    I don't mean to offend anybody, but people who STILL support the military and it's agenda, after EVERYTHING that went down and has been exposed....I almost feel bad for them. Patriotism like it was encouraged by your 'forefathers', and the way they viewed it is dead. It's all business now. People are losing their lives as dollars bills, it's sad to the point I can't put it into words.

    To the OP, loving the title xD

    And I just saw that 900k offer....writing checks to suppress the question. PIGS!! Somebody needs to bring out the hammer and start making some ham!!!

    Faith and blind faith are two different things.

    Agreed, most don't join to actually fight for the Country and protect the American citizens they join for the thrill and excitement.
    And its not like they don't get rewarded for it either, its just like any other job, just has alot more perks.
