Police Brutality
This Subject has been inspired by a news report I just seen,In regard to the Taxi driver tied to the back of a Police van. and dragged to the Station along the ground.
Eight Officers were Involved in the murder.
Is Police brutality on the rise or is this issue another case of the power of social media the fact that everyone now carry cameras.
Making it harder to hide the fact that this abuse of power is rampant in our society's.
Is It ever Justified ?

This kind of brutality is becoming the norm in this part of the world.
34 miners shot dead in Marikana in August 2012 for daring to strike against conditions.
A human rights worker shot and killed.
What they hoped to achieve by this beggars belief. Just for parking his taxi on the wrong side of the road. Hope they throw the book at them,but doubt it.
I have for some time been thinking that Police were nothing But
glorified watchdogs of the elite upper classes. This seems more and more real every day.
Even though I was brought up to respect Law and order, I find it quite hard of late.
No doubt corruption has always been part of these organisations but one look on you tube shows a sickening reality that runs very deep and is disturbing.
I guess I'll get crucified for my thoughts here, but when you go back into the past history of S.A. it's like a role reversal only black on black.
The white police force certainly knew about inhuman treatment of the populus during apartheid.
It's all about control.
Elmo,
Absolutely sickening behaviour. Shows the level of fear that these people Invoke that No one could find the voice to do something.
Is it The hidden face Fascism or What
I wont be Crucifying you.
I often Say that when Éamon de Valera Got the Irish Republic of the British.
He took the stick and now we Beat our selves twice as hard with it.
So I agree with you.
History is forgotten when there is money to be made.
But Like Politicians Im sure the enter the job young and Idealistic.
It does not take long for them to become disheartened.
a Cheeky Proposition indeed.
Yes run and hide, I respect that
