132. All I can say is that your worldview is skewed...
Seriously, you discount the negatives and want to only say the positives, saying that its just a "few bad apples" that are the problem. However, the facts and reports that exist directly contradict that assertion. When you have cops in Seattle that, in 1999, assaulted WTO protesters for no reason, that's a systematic problem. Cops in Miami, in 2003, repeatedly shot rubber bullets at a SINGLE protester, a local businesswoman, who was over 50 feet away and held a single protest sign. And just this year we had cops, AFTER an immigration protest in LA on May Day, attacked reporters of all people, for doing absolutely nothing, and the fucking police chief defends those actions. Never mind the fact that a woman had her arm broken and a cameraman suffered a concussion, among other injuries. But no, all that you dismiss, because your brother is a "good guy", excuse me while a puke.
