Control vs. Brutality: Police from Shreveport to Florida

The mantra "Blogging for Good" includes stating where we as Americans have "Gone Bad". I can only hope that no one in my family will come into a situation where such mindless "brutality" is confused with "control".

This evening, I'm watching CBS News' new video player and come across this troubling clip (below) of a Shreveport police officer slamming a female DUI suspect into walls, eventually laying in a pool of her own blood, then carried out on a stretcher. Needless.

Martial brutality upon the public by our police is contrary to their oath.

Follow that clip with the lack-luster humanity of this Florida Deputy below:

I wonder if these officers of the law, their chiefs, mayors, senators, representatives and governors feel ill when they see these clips? Like my Autumn says to me often, "Some people don't know how to act." And sometimes they're on our own team.
