American officers, though, that's a whole other story. I hear about all the shit they're doing, flashbanging toddlers, shooting innocent dogs and breaching innocent people's houses. That's terrible and there should be something done about this.
Just one more completely ridiculous instance of gossip about America getting waaaay out of hand in other countries. This is ludicrous to even bring it up. Every job has a certain amount of corruption. There are doctors and clergymen who get into the news, too... to take the profession as a whole and make a statement like this... well that just upsets me to no end. (See, I didn't use the term that was screaming to get out about what it does to me.)
This is how the world grapevine works... and I've seen it happen for decades, so it's nothing new. A dog that has been trained to kill and attack and may have been guarding something like a meth house... guess what? A police officer comes by to check out a meth report and.. yep, there's the killer dog attacking. Would YOU say "nice doggie woggie, please don't attack me!"?????? No, of course not.
Dog attacks and is shot. But guess what, by the time the gossip mongers get ahold of the story, it's suddenly an "innocent" dog. GRRRR.
And that other thing you accused concerning toddlers? I don't even know what this IS but I can probably figure it out and I can't *believe* you're saying that other countries believe this. Craziness to think people believe such garbage on the levels they seem to believe it. Even if it happened once, it could have happened with a priest, doctor, or used car saleman too, now couldn't it?
Posts like this is why I chose to leave the forum for a while. I came back today hoping to see some semblance of reality but... this is the post I read first. Oy.
