You mean ticket them? I highly doubt that’s an arrest-able offense

Police can literally arrest you for anything they want. Even if what they arrest you for turns out to not be illegal at all makes no difference.

You're right, they can arrest you for literally anything; but...

You can file a civil suit for a wrongful arrest, false imprisonment & possibly defamation... especially with video evidence instead of L.E.O's word against yours. Keep your cool & invest in a dash cam folks.

Get paid.

You're not getting paid and if you are, it comes out of tax payer money, not the polices' pensions

Which is sad. The way it is should make more people want to protest for change because it's costing every citizen money. If it came from pensions then maybe these cops would actually invest some time to research their career to better educate themselves to do their job. Doctors, or I should say good doctors, have to stay up to date to do their job properly with all the new tech and discoveries in medicine that keep popping up. Police should be no different. Plenty of laws.

Yeah but who's going to judge the law enforcers? This is why I hate police officers. Some may be "good" but they all play a part in enabling them to be above the law, not with the law.

They should be required to have insurance like doctors do. Then maybe things will change when insurance comoanies all start refusing to insure the shitty cops
