Guys, there are tens of thousands of cops here. Hundreds of thousands of daily interactions. Do you not realize that the action of a miniscule few idiots/bad cops are being highlighted under the media mantra of "if it bleeds it leads"? Come on, put the numbers into perspective, honestly.
Load of cobblers , you have lots of police stating there are serious issues ( give that a whirl - http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/p040v890 ) for a start.Jimbeaux said:

I'm watching the doc about the cop watchers in new York, "NYPD, Biggest Gang In New York?" It's on the iPlayer, pretty shocking.
I'm sure I read that most NY cops will never even draw their weapon during their career, much less fire it. If that's true, then presumably the average must be even lower for the whole US.

Forgive my ignorance but why can you not cross a road in the USA?
J walking.Many European countries have the same thing, ever noticed you are the only one crossing in Europe? I've been told off on the mainland. Can't remember which country possibly Austria or Germany,
It was a small and absolutely silent, empty road in a small quiet village, you would see/hear a car from miles away and we were standing there for no reason whatsoever.
To be fair - I do agree with her and I felt guilty. Her 4 year old can't evaluate safety, he sees adults crossing on red so he will too.
The whole Jaywalk comedy is new to me , the land of the mong just dropped another IQ point or two/2/to/too//tooo
