        It is alarming that you compare our brave police officers in the U.S. to these paramilitary thugs in Africa. #BlueLivesMatter

        You can't argue with facts, so you resort to name calling. Typical leftists strategy.

        When police wants women, they arrest beautiful prostitutes; happening in US. They want everything free & don't want to pay for sex

        Not just West Africa. East Africans using social media to expose tyranny's brutalities as well as soft bellies. Do I hear #Ethiopia

        Now that cellphones are everywhere, police should be legally powerless to arrest without a 9-11 phone call. We can ban patrols.

        oh you're right, we should just let officers of the law misconduct themselves without repercussions. Why even try.

        I could also attribute your conservative ideology to your complete voluntary ignorance of policing issues.
