You never know for sure, but I get the feeling I would have a very different assessment of American law enforcement.

This is the problem that is happening in this thread. Misunderstanding the points people are making.
Police departments variey even in Canada. I work with B.C Human Rights on a regular basis out side of my full time gig. I understand both sides of the argument. I understand those concerned with blanketed statements toward the Law enforcement and vice versa toward civilians.
In this thread We are talking about the Law enforcement of these American Cities who are letting the civillans down who they have sworn to protect and not rule over. Theses specific Cities have been found by the DOJ as failing the public with unlawful practices. It started with Albuquerque, New mexico and has now gone through to these Cities and Now even In Baltimore is Currently under an Investigation. Comments in this thread are not digs at specifically at CPS. They are pointing out the faults of these American police forces that have been found to habour an insidious culture within their police forces that need to change for the relationship between them and the public that pays them to protect and serve them before the two parties can heal.
