Tasered to Death: Should all be afraid of cops?

In the US – there’s also strong concern over how far and with how much immunity, police can push their sweeping powers. A recent human rights group report blamed law enforcement officers for tasering 500 people to death over the last decade. And Tim Cavanaugh, managing director of Reason dot COM, says for Americans, the first reaction to police is fear, rather than trust.

I learned in a psychology class that some cops join the force primarily so that they can kick butt, and do it legally.

And you know I think that police departments in USA spend too much of their time and resources on misdeamors on irrelevant crimes such as speeding tickets, and transportation violations. But they suck at persecutting big crimes like the abduction of women for sex slavery, rapes, murder, corporate banking crimes, and other big crimes, specially crimes against poor workers

I don't think you needed to take a psychology class to learn that though.
