Smacking someone?

Umm, that post gives the impression "if" he did it, it isnt worth dealing with.

Not accusing, but I am asking.

Poor David? Are you aware of his previous on duty incidents that are criminal in nature? Look, we’ve got a job to do and it’s a tough one. We have to put on our game face at work and remain completely professional at all times. We have to act with integrity at all times. It’s hard enough when our own dept works against us by hiring unqualified individuals and refuses to fire recruits when it becomes obvious that they are a liability. When we find that we have officers that lie, steal, assault restrained prisoners, etc, etc, etc – we have to let these folks go. Only by demanding a higher standard will be able to legitimately be proud of the badge. I don’t want to be compared to or work next to any of these screwballs that tarnish our reputation or put us in a bad light. If you want to be a police officer then act like one.
