Now if only we could stop those unions from protecting the piece of shit cops and get rid of qualified immunity so there'd be repercussions for some cop's shitty behavior, we'd be getting somewhere.

If only we could get people to educate themselves about what qualified immunity is and isn't. To many people think it is absolute immunity. You have to be acting in good faith and within policy to be covered. IE, an officer pulls a guy over for swerving all over the road, smells alcohol, conducts sobriety tests, and makes an arrest, but the guy blows under the limit. The officer has qualified immunity. The job will not work without it.
