There is Far More to Being a "Good Cop" than Choosing to Not Beat...

• http://thefreethoughtproject.com, By Eva Decesare

Police brutality has become so rampant in this country that many people now commend the officers who stand by and watch these violent attacks, simply for not participating in the crimes committed by their brothers in blue.

The lengths to which some people will go to praise police when they deserve no praise, even when they deserve total condemnation, is simply astonishing. No matter how egregious the misconduct, there are hoards who will desperately grasp for excuses to proclaim such actions to be "understandable," if not outright heroic. And let's not forget the fundraisers that have been set up for multiple cold-blooded killer cops.

Then there are the incidents in which one or more cops are caught on video brutally victimizing some unarmed person who isn't fighting back, while other officers just watch, push witnesses away or simply block their view.
