Not to make this personal, but I am going to be a Police Officer when I come of age.
There are contradictions with your allegations on what makes a cop.
1.) I have had girlfriends and I haven't been bullied since Elementary when most people are bullied
2.) I would never strike any woman unless they started beating me senseless, even then I would not hit them, I would restrain them.
Sorry to prove you wrong.

And day after day, after day, after day...you see the same garbage back on the street, doing the same crimes against, because the "cop" fudged up on paperwork, or sentence was 24 hrs, or bs like that. After trying to protect and serve, a call you just made...Even murderers are back out, after 5 years.
I know, you're right cops are everywhere.
There has to be a brotherhood of sorts. They are on the paramilitary scale. These people save and protect lives, yours and mine, each others. Having to rely on them is key. Look at the American soldiers fighting a war for your freedoms...but then look at the crap that happened at gitmo...
These are people, with people problems...so the twisted few do stand out.
No need for me to look at the soldiers fighting the war because I was one.
This is a garbage description. But, yet they protect you, when you cry for them. They don't even know you. You could be worse than that description, and they will still come to save your life, if you need it. That's a pretty noble thing for a "nothing"
well; their screening process is terrible and I've dealt with much more and worse "garbage" than these guys(or atleast most of them) an actual opposing army and terrorist compared to giving little old ladies parking tickets and tasing anyone who doesn't snap to it, not all cops work dangerous areas. so don't say they deal with stuff I won't, I can't because I would land in jail.
Don't know about you but I've never cried for the cops to protect me, why would I call people with less training than me to protect me, If I had to shoot someone then I would call them to make a report so I wouldn't be charged with murder.
Yes, a lot of them teeter on this behavior. They screen applicants this way. To deal with the garbage that you won't, they can't be passive. You can't charge them with the job of keeping the peace, and have them say...
"please...um...could uh...everyone please...uh..be nice..."
and as far as saying to them "please...um...could uh...everyone please...uh..be nice..." no but how about "um uh" be professional, carry yourselves in a manner where they respect the badge not the gun.

Police brutality is at an all time unjustified high and it's painful that no one else stepped in to say something other that a few yells from a distance...

You said :
There are , what, 47,000 Police Officers in the country? And since you see a video of a handful of cops 'acting beyond their right of power' you believe the entire system is corrupt.
I think I will use an analogy used in this very topic in a previous post..what was it..oh right, monkeys.
Give a monkey any intelligence at all and he thinks he knows more than the next monkey.
Granted, there are some instances where SOME cops act unlawfully, but keep in mind that it only takes ONE cop to act aggressively toward someone until every cop on the scene jumps in to support their comrade. It doesn't mean they are all corrupt, it means that one is corrupt and the rest are just there to support a situation before an officer gets hurt.
Protect your own.

That should solve this problem, violence. Yeah, that solves everything.
Just beat down the aggressor harder. It always works out in the ned.
Good luck punching an Officer in the face.
