They just enforce the laws. If the laws were changed, guess what, they would then enforce the new laws.
nuremberg defense?
Putting someone in the drunk tank is a little less morally wrong than putting someone in a GAS CHAIMBER. You know it's wrong when innocent kids go in, and come out dead. The only time that happens at jail is when an inmate REALLY fucks with the wrong gang, or hangs himself.
Fucking A, just watch the show COPS for a while. First day on the job, my brother had to arrest some pregnant niglet who shot up her ex's car w/his new GF in it. Next week he had to shoot a pit bull that was gnawing some poor kid's leg off. After that, some big schizophrenic loon was tossing bricks into passing cars. Almost killed a little girl when one struck her head, so they locked him up. That's just the first month.
I'd really like to see the list of laws these cops break vs how many people they save by pulling shitheads off the street.
