Welllllll

Lets just say there probably aren't any that would be done by an 86 year old on oxygen alone in her bed with family present.

But there are others....

I'm not one who assumes that all cops are thugs or anything, but the one thing that bothers me is that cops frequently get away with their own crimes, even DUIs. I believe that as officers of the law they should be held to a higher standard.

I don't know how to enforce that when they're on the job.

Not sure if I agree with that, but how about an equal standard?

No, quite frankly too many people get off too lightly on DUIs even when they kill someone. Raise that standard first and I might agree.

Are you thinking of the case in Chicago recently? Live-in has a friend who knew the victims... so sad.
