As I stated, without any background knowledge, people attacking police simply b/c of the job they do and an unintended 'outcome' certainly shows a certain amount of bias.
first off - examining police conduct and policy =\= attacking police
heck, examining and discussing it doesn't even necessarily imply disagreement with what they did.

i have not read the two particular books you mentioned but would be more than happy to read them over if you'd be willing to lend me a copy.

as for the rest of your post that i didn't even bother quoting - i really didn't think the level of discussion had dipped quite that low....
