LINK Cop Gets Chewed Out By Sergeant For Harassing Protester - YouTube

Rogue cop trying to arrest a man for practicing his first amendment right. Why didn't he know that the man was practicing one of his rights guaranteed under the constitution? Why should police, with such pathetic legal training that some don't even know if someone is actually breaking the law, be able to arrest someone, deprive them of their freedom and force them through a legal process? Even a ticket in this scenario is nothing but harassment based on ignorance and will cost a citizen unnecessary time and effort to resolve because of a cop's ignorance of the law. There is something obviously wrong with a system that allows such power to anyone who will do between 800 and 1440 hours of training.

Absolutely there is something wrong. They don't pay cops worth shit, so how can they recruit quality candidates. And shouldn't there be mandatory extensive legal training? What's all this nonsense of letting them loose on the streets with a badge and gun after only a matter of months, or even weeks? And they sure as hell need to stop taking ex-military warriors without at least extensively deprogramming to not regard citizens on the street as if we were battlefield enemy combattants.
