I wonder, as former Law Enforcement, when I got up and put my uniform on I retained my humanity, I did not become above the law of these United States that I swore to uphold. If I were to be tazed today I could very well die due to having a couple of electrodes attached to my spine. Nothing is gained IMO by pepper spraying women and children, it doesn't de-escalate, a protest. No amount of roughing up 74 year old Veterans makes the streets safer, zip tying people who are airing their grievances with their government is not necessary when people are using only the voice they were born with. Law Enforcement is not above the law, no matter how much training one has.
I stand with the 99%
