They are watching you in Az!

Some of my "Best Buds" are Cops and retired "Cops/Sherrif's"

I have to admit, that individual had a "very bad day"

He will probably be compensated for this, hopefully.

I just hope the Nures was a woman and GREAT looking, you know...the one who gave him the RECTAL probe?

Oh Oy Gosh!

I don't blame the officers in these situations, I blame the Supreme Court for allowing things to move in this direction. You could not be cited for speeding with uncertified equipment, why would they allow a uncertified dog to trigger an assault like this.

And the cops didn't know that the dog's cert had expired?? Kinda doubt that. I also know a few cops and one is my BIL and I know how they can be but I also know how some perps can be too. I was also a 'white hat' in the AF and didn't like that job one bit. It had it's benefits but they didn't outweigh the responsibility. Sometimes it's not easy being a cop but some have no business being in the business.

It seems like they are turning out more cops to become militants every year. I understand the war on crime has changed dramatically over the last 5-10-15 years, but to put somebody through that for not using a blinker, I think that is a little extreme. I'd hate to see what they did if he ran a red light or stop sign.

I know a lot of cops (and a couple of chiefs) from when my wife worked for the local PD a few years ago. Most of them were good guys, but a police department is like any other workplace where you will find a few bad apples. When you hire someone you don't always know what you have until you put them on the job and see how they perform. A big part of the problem is when you call someone for a reference, they are often reluctant to badmouth a former employee because of fear of litigation or they are just glad to be rid of a bad employee. Consequently, bad cops tend to move from one job to the next on a fairly regular basis. I know that the Seattle PD is having a lot of trouble finding qualified applicants for officer positions mostly because the cops in the area think of the Seattle PD as a job of last resort.

I'm sure they know the dog's cert is expired. It is the Supreme Court's latest ruling on searches by dog's that allow this dog to operate.

Just an observation here. In the last decade I have noticed that police forces have begun allowing their officers to dress in a more "paramilitary" style. I feel this blurs the line between a "peace-officer", and a "jack-booted-thug"! Police should dress as just that, and not as some "quasi-military" force. The uniform blurs the mindset of the job. When in the Army, and dressed a s a soldier, I acted as a soldier. I dont want police dressed as soldiers.

I'm always very suspicious when I hear these cops-out-of-control stories that are wayyyy over the top because 99.9% of the time you're hearing a rendering of the facts that is tailored to elicit a specific response. I've been following this story for a couple of weeks now, and I can't help but notice that one key element is missing: why the guy was suspected of having concealed narcotics. I keep seeing stuff like "Though it is unclear why, the officers with the Hidalgo County Sheriff’s Department suspected the driver of possessing drugs".

I've worked in law enforcement, and at a sheriff's office, and with drug dogs, and drug dogs are not routinely deployed to check out random drivers at traffic stops. What my guess is once the whole story comes out, we'll discover this wasn't some Joe Sixpack guy who out minding his own business and had a spotless record being checked out, but someone with a history of narcotics violations including a history of hiding drugs up his ***. Of course, by the time this part of the story comes out the fervor of what happened will have passed and everyone will have moved on to the next story, and the fact that the cops had a lot of good reasons to suspect this guy was a mule, and not just the way he had his but cheeks clenched, will be a bit relegated to the bottom of page 20 of the Style section of the papers.

I'm glad they are watching. I want them to know I am NOT afraid and I am always armed.
