Continuing the Battle

PIU is metro cops so that IS within

Asking the department to police themselves is simply asking the wolves to keep themselves out of the henhouse.

There are dishonest cops, hopefully a minority, but because so many are ostracized if they try to change the "good ole boy" network, and the way things used to be.

As to your point about seeing cops whizzing by, it is statistically unlikely that EVERY time the officer has been on call. If youre like me, you have seen enough incidents of brazen disregard that it is evidence that there is no "higher standard" and the mantra of the LMPD is not, as stated.

The purpose if this isnt to make cops out to be the bad guy, it is to point out that they are human and as such subject to human fallacy. The difference is that when you are sworn to uphold the law, you cannot deem yourselves above it.

In short, its called professionalism.
