I agree they are trained differently. But .. It appears too many of these same kinda thugs are now signed up to be cops and apparently even cops are influenced to say act unconstitutionally if their pay checks are threatened. Because the economy is the way it is mental health issues are rising. With that they should have more training for their safety and those of others. There is a threshold of how much people can take. Ask the veterans. This may not of been the case with Brown but his behavior should of been recognized sooner.
Ororeef, the football thing was a joke but who knows. Too many poor kids are prone to get in trouble if they have nothing to do and nothing to look forward to. I’ve heard too many stories about if it wasn’t for so and so coming along in their lives they would of wound up a thug in the streets or prison and self esteem played a big roll in that.
