The police deserve whatever image they create for themselves - don't blame the citizens for the corrupt actions of those charged to protect us...
If cops want to be liked, they should stop abusing their powers with alarming regularity (because this kind of thing happens WAAAAAAAY more often than reported - we just never hear about it because it usually doesn't happen to celebrities...)

Who blamed the cops as a whole? (certainly not Mr. Moats...)
You're defending an issue that was never raised in the first place...
Let's call your post what it is: another right-wing talking point rather than a response to the actual story at hand...
