Incompetent Thoughtless Cops Cause Grief & Financial Loss

Cops often receive incentives for arrests, particularly for DUI.
Problem is that this motivates them to arrest even innocent people.
It's no trouble for the cops....they suffer no inconvenience or loss.
But the victims & the taxpayer foot the bill for the carnage to lives
these cops cause.
What happens to the cops? They move on to another department.

It is so common, there are even YouTube channels highlighting US Cops wrong doing

Woman has gun pointed at her.
She's the victim of a crime, & is very upset.
Cops escalate the situation, & arrest her for being emotional.
As is so often the case, victims are better off not calling the cops.
The video shows the events & provides legal analysis.
However, more graphic footage of her violent arrest is excluded.
Youtube standards.

Question Everything
Cops have virtually no education. Can't cut it in college? Want a quick easy career? Become a cop.

I think cops should be required to at least hold a bachelor's degree, combination of lawyer and psychology classes.

Stop giving guns to uneducated cop-outs who are unfit and uneducated.

Guy walks out of a hospital.
Cops tackle, arrest, & charge him.
They claimed he was an escaped inmate.
But there were no escaped inmates.

Watch how they just run up to him & assault him with no investigation.

Cops get false call of a dispute.
Cops approach a deaf man from behind, barking orders.
There's no evidence of a crime.
He doesn't respond, so they taze & assault him in front of his wife & kids.
Even after it's clear he's deaf, they keep barking orders.
Of 3 cops, not one stops the brutal attack on the man.
Finally, one wises up, & hands the victim some paper.
Paramedics treat him for injuries.
He's then treated at a hospital.
Of course, the government & cops are sued.
Taxpayers will foot the bill...not the cops or their union.
The brutal stupid cops remain on the job.
But are forced to take a 4 hour course about hard of hearing drivers.
(This reminds me of the case where cops went after a blind man for his cane.)

She found her car vandalized.
She flagged down 2 cops on bikes.
They arrested her because there'd because there was a hit-&-run accident somewhere earlier.
But they didn't bother to investigate whether she was the driver.
Talking to cops is dangerous.
City will pay her $200,000.

An illegal citizens arrest of a "transient" by a SWAT
medic (not a cop, but part of the team). He holds
victim down while passers by & his son (an MMA
fighter) viciously & repeatedly beat him.
More cops arrive.
No investigation. None of the assailants arrested.
Victim is hospitalized before going to jail. Cops deny
existence of body cam footage, covering it all up.

Store surveillance camera to the rescue!
Witnesses discovered.
Cover-up uncovered.
Cops begin investigating themselves.
Lawsuit will certainly be filed.

Cops break into a home, & arrest the wrong person.
No warrant. The victim didn't match the description
of the person sought.
Policing shouldn't be a job that attracts the dumbest,
the least educated, & the most violent applicants.

Advice: Do not open the door for cops unless they
have a warrant. Record all encounters with them.

In this follow up, you can hear the cops later
lying about the interaction on their report.
But to the cops' credit, they decided to not
charge her for resisting the false arrest.
