Read the recent story about this incident of police brutality for context.

The police is supposed to be the ones we rely on in an event of an emergency, the heroes, the last ones we turn to when faced with danger. The public pays a good portion of their salaries for this assurance. It is a very noble and honourable position. It angers me to see so many police officers who attack people for no reason, degrade people, then laugh about it. They enjoy abusing because they were probably abused themselves. They apply opinions they read in trash simpleton tabloid magazines to decide whose the bad guy. Many police officers have no sense of empathy or a mind of their own.

I myself have recently been confronted in a dangerous situation where I was actually scared to call the police because I thought they would end up attacking me! I had an intruder who came onto my balcony, when he left I was rattled. I wanted to report it to the police, but chose not to because I knew they wouldn’t care, especially since I had the “estie carré rouge” (damn red square as the police officer I’m referring to said) on my balcony. And I was right to be scared, I could have dealt with Stephanie Trudeau, since my apartment was in the zone where she works. Isn’t it pathetic in a ‘democratic’ country, that citizens are actually scared to ask for police assistance?! Isn’t it sad that citizens are afraid to seek police assistance because they fit a certain profile, because they express a certain opinion?

It sounds to me that we need to have a new criteria for hiring OUR police officers, one that evaluates their education level, and emotional intelligence levels. They also need to be tightly monitored and punished for any wrongdoing. We also need moral and logical based laws that they can enforce, no more loop hole nonsense. This police officer got away with a lot, and she gets a mere slap on the wrist for almost killing people. It’s time to take these “officers” out of their uniforms immediately, and send them directly to a mental rehabilitation clinic.
