I think there's a big difference between saying "thug-like behavior" and branding everyone as "thugs" in one swoop. Yea if you steal liquor bottles and burn someone's business who did nothing wrong, you're a piece of crap. But just throwing out "thugs" seems like a convenient way to ignore the bigger problems and issues at hand here.
This is all too true. The notion that police are above the laws they are tasked to uphold is all too often accepted as a necessary evil when it should be something we actively seek to eradicate.
I think this nationwide push to require officers to wear body cams is a step in the right direction.

The police unions fighting against body cameras tells us all we need to know about how corrupt they are. Its near impossible to hold police accountable without video evidence so they fight it. This is why I say that the idea of good cops is a fallacy, the good ones willingly turn a blind eye to the bad cops makes them part of the problem. I think the FBI should be sending people undercover into police stations just like they would any other criminal organization. If they are innocent they have nothing to hide right? Or does that only apply to non-cops? And if any arrests need to be made of Cops make sure and raid their house with a SWAT team at 3 am and shoot anything that moves like they do to people.
They should make a video game of whats its really like to be a cop. Like shooting someone, then checking to make sure theres no surveillance cameras before lying in the police report to justify the shooting. Getting a dog to fake alert so you can search a car, then if you dont find anything you have the option to plant drugs. You get bonus points for arresting people trying to film you too.

Screw this thread, the mother that popped her kid upside the head is the real hero. My mom was like, yep, I would have done the same thing. This is the reason why the school wants her to return to instill discipline into kids as they are fed up with it. Kids nowadays have no respect for any authority, mouth off to both teachers and parents in front of principal and if they expel them, the board will just reinstate them. What is more alarming that more than 50% of the rioters were teenagers? Kids that should be in school. Where are the other parents?
