Each state that runs its own police force (all of them) should be required to have some sort of Internal Affairs. But it should be detached from the police department and mixed into the state's justice system. When someone wants to make a complaint against the police, you should be going to a courthouse, not a precinct. That way complaints and other actions become a matter of public record, can be run by the citizens, and the police can actually be held accountable--this will also limit the power of the Police Union and help prevent things from being swept under the rug, and probably reduce the number of cops that get away with shooting dogs for no reason. Only a few states/cities have something like this.
One of our government's only actual jobs is protecting us from criminals and protecting our rights. So basically police and courts (and an army). This is the justification for actually having a government in the first place. But if you're going to allow the police to have legal use of force over its citizens without any real sort of checks and balances, then you're violating what you set out to do in the first place.
"But a government that initiates the employment of force against men who had forced no one, the employment of armed compulsion against disarmed victims, is a nightmare infernal machine designed to annihilate morality: such a government reverses its only moral purpose and switches from the role of protector to the role of man’s deadliest enemy, from the role of policeman to the role of a criminal vested with the right to the wielding of violence against victims deprived of the right of self-defense. Such a government substitutes for morality the following rule of social conduct: you may do whatever you please to your neighbor, provided your gang is bigger than his."
"The nature of governmental action is: *coercive* action. The nature of political power is: the power to force obedience under threat of physical injury—the threat of property expropriation, imprisonment, or death."

So I'm in the living room watching these videos, getting pissed off, talking to the cops/victims in a stern voice...**** you, dont do it, lol border checks. I have family in South Texas, south of a border check, so these videos are very relevant.
Wife: You and your Dad can keep messing with the border patrol all you want, as long as the kids and I aren't in the car.
Me: So we should only protect our rights when its convenient?
Wife: Your putting us in danger.
Me: That's why you should stand up for yourself, you shouldn't feel endangered when your not breaking the law.
Wife: They never bother me.
Me: We shouldn't have to show our papers to travel in country.
Wife: Your just antagonizing them.
Me: Ma'm US Border Patrol, show me your ****.
Wife: **** you.
Me: Yahtzee

Georgia Court Invalidates Search Over A Misplaced License Decal
The Georgia Court of Appeals divided 3 to 2 last month on the question of whether police were wrong to search a motorist merely because he appeared nervous and had his license plate decal on the wrong corner of the plate. On July 24, 2009, a patrolman stopped James Heard hoping to issue a ticket for a tag violation when he did not see a 2009 registration sticker. The officer had also been on the lookout for the type of Chevy S-10 truck Heard was driving.
Stopped on the side of the road, Heard explained his registration was up to date and handed over proof, along with his license and insurance card. In the course of the stop, two other officers arrived and surrounded the pickup truck. The patrolman noted that Heard appeared nervous, then checked and confirmed that there was a license decal on the left side of the license plate instead of the right side. At this point, the officer testified in court that his investigation of the traffic violation had ended, but the officer decided to ask consent to search the pickup truck. Heard said no. Heard then understood the officer to order him out of the vehicle, and he was frisked for weapons. He was asked about a search once again, and after he consented the officers found six pieces of crack cocaine.

Garland Cop Charged With Manslaughter After Firing on Chase Suspect 41 Times
At first, the official story of what happened in the early morning hours of August 31, 2012, was that 25-year-old Michael Vincent Allen had led police on a high-speed chase through Garland and Mesquite before being herded into a cul de sac. In a last-ditch attempt to escape, he rammed a Garland PD squad car. The cop inside, fearing for his life, opened fire, killing Allen.
Within two weeks, the narrative had been revised. Vincent hadn't rammed the cop; the cop had rammed him. The "multiple rounds" the officer had fired became 41, with two pauses to reload.

It began when a stressed out bus driver pulled over and warned students she would call police if the students on board didn't quiet down. Two Dalton police officers responded.

Officer Steven Collins talked to one student off the bus, using one swear word. Officer John Gurrieri talked to the rest of the kids, cursing multiple times.
"You want to act like crazy a**holes, do it at home," Gurrieri is heard saying on the school bus video.

Sheriff’s deputy placed on leave following run-in with editor | The Today File | Seattle Times
A King County sheriff’s deputy who threatened a newspaper editor with arrest during a sidewalk confrontation in July has been placed on administrative leave pending the final results of an internal investigation into his behavior.
King County Sheriff John Urquhart confirmed today that Deputy Patrick Saulet was placed on paid administrative leave before Thanksgiving for allegedly threatening to arrest Dominic Holden, news editor for The Stranger weekly newspaper.
Holden wrote that he was riding his bike past Fourth Avenue South and South Jackson Street about 7:25 p.m. on July 30 when he saw six law enforcement officers surrounding a man who was seated on a planter box at a transit station.
Holden said he took a photo from a public sidewalk of Saulet, who told Holden to leave the area or risk arrest. Holden then spoke to a Seattle police officer, who reportedly threatened to come to Holden’s office and bother him while he was working.
Taking photos of police activity on public property is legal.
“As long as they are not directly interfering with an investigation, they have a right to stand there and videotape or take photos,” said sheriff’s spokeswoman Sgt. Cindi West following the incident.
In addition to writing about the incident, Holden filed complaints with both the King County Sheriff’s Office and Seattle Police Department.

Good to see they are doing their jobs. As I've always said, they use deadly force with far too little provocation. Some job they do to "protect and serve". They will kill someone at the first signs of danger to them, instead of exploring other options first. They signed up for the job knowing the risks, but they are unwilling to take risks.

Shooting simulator spurs grand jury questions
Shooting simulator spurs grand jury questions
The use of the shooting simulator, which was not widely known until a Houston Chronicle investigation, has prompted questions among defense attorneys and civil rights activists about whether it could prejudice grand juries. Harris County grand juries have cleared HPD officers in shootings 288 consecutive times.
...
‘Self-defense’ primer
The DA’s office, which began using the simulator in 2003, contends it helps grand jurors understand pressures of police work and the split-second decisions officers must make. Harris County District Attorney Devon Anderson said the simulations educate jurors about situations when self-defense claims are legitimate — not just for police officers but for all residents.
...
“This seems to be a brainwashing that all but guarantees immunity for the cops,” Burke said about the simulator. “It really seems outrageous and holds the potential of tainting the jury.”
The reality that police have been nearly immune from criminal charges in shootings concerns the most senior Harris County criminal judge, who noted that grand juries indict a much higher number of defendants in other types of cases.
