stood there for more than 3 minutes of video, covering his badge number. That is a problem. When did police become afraid of their badge numbers being a matter of public record?

I believe the phrase that applies, is, "guilty by association" with the police that murder unarmed non-aggressive people in handcuffs being murdered slowly, while pleading to breathe

Remember, police are volunteer, and can quit and get a real job anytime. In fact, having been police, if they do not have a dishonorable record, are likely to be hired by any corporation to be middle management with a pay raise any day of the week.

And again, Maine State Trooper Stephan Murray is still my hero: https://justacarguy.blogspot.com/2017/10/know-why-kids-dont-dress-up-as-cops-but.html because not all cops are badge bully assholes, just most of them.

like the CHP officer that was punching the shit out of the grandmother on the side of the freeway. 

or this roid rage asshole who never got over being the highschool bully
