COPS GONE WILD!

A New York City firefighter and a Long Island town fire chie were arrested on March 10, 2010 for allegedly brandishing guns and threatening a pedestrian. Sometimes when you hear of these kind of acts being done by officials who took an oath to serve and protect the people you get a little disgusted. There was no reason why Michael Charles, the Long Island Fire Chief had a handgun while Brian Schuck had a shotgun. They menaced and harassed an unidentified man on a Sunday afternoon in Hempstead Long Island. Shuck, whose an eight year FDNY veteran at Ladder 11 in Brooklyn was suspended without pay following said incident. The chief surrendered to authorities after his actions. This incident is somewhat reminiscent of the guy who was tackled by a police officer while on his bike during a protest. Its not unusual that these kind of offenses occur on a daily basis. People who are in power often abuse it and before you know it, you have a criminal charge of assault on police. Fortunately for him, there was footage that captured him trying to avoid the officer. It was the officer who charged at him and thats when all hell broke loose. That same cop retired from the force and is now facing criminal charges. I remember a cop pulled out a gun on me one day while in plain clothes. I was walking down the block with my girl when all the sudden it happened. He was looking at my fiance so I barked at him for being disrespectful and he decided to pull out his gun waving it in my direction. How low can you be? Your the police but yet you act like some ignorant thug. We went to the precinct to file a complaint but nothing ever happened. This same officer lives in my neighborhood and I often see him from time to time. When I do see him, he acts as if I don't remember him but he knows he was wrong. My fiance and I saw him about a week later at Pathmark and guess what? He was with his wife! Just like that I could've been a victim of ignorance as a result of some pervert with a badge. I guess to justify it, they'd bring up my criminal history like they always do when someone gets killed. As if that's all thats needed to prove they did society a favor by getting rid of you. The laws out here don't serve the public when you have known officials doing things you'd expect from ignorant people. They put all these damn cops on our street corners to agitate you but whose monitoring their actions? Are they being reprimanded? I'm sure the guy in my case didn't! God forbid if he had pulled that trigger! I would not be here to share this with you.
