Since this thread is talking about "bad LEO's" let me share my story. About 20 years ago my son, when my wife and I were not home, decided to throw a party. Invited among others was a police officer friend of my sons from a neighboring town, who always had a certain aggressive nature. With alcohol being served, the police officer, who was drunk, began to make a fool of himself and my son, along with others, had him leave the house--whether there was any pushing a shoving--probably was--but the point was that the police officer did not leave on his own and then proceeded to go out to his car and come back to the house with his service gun. My son, scared to death, called our local police, who, when they arrived, sided with the police officer in lieu of my son and his friends. I eventually gave the Chief a piece of my mind and did not appreciate this blue wall response--it was my house and my son's house and the prersentation of a weapon goes far beyond police procedure. The payoff to this story is the fact that several months ago this police officer (granted about 20 years have passed since that incident) has been named the Chief of Police of this neighboring town, his advancement thru the ranks fueled by an intense attention to his policing duties including swat. Personally, I never forgot what this police officer did and maybe maturity and time has changed things but I cannot forget that like leopards, you cannot lose your spots if t hey are part of your psyche and when you have a gun and a badge, it gets scary.
