A lot of the patrol level officers are corrupt as hell. They work extra duty security while on actual duty. Instead of patrolling their area, they are across town working security for double the pay. One NOPD officer, who was the father of the TE recruit who committed to Miami year before last, was arrested by the FBI for that exact thing less than a year ago. He was 'working a detail' at an Eastbank elderly complex(Guste), while working a detail as traffic cop at Westbank school, and being on actual duty. ETA- I looked it up his name was Dobard, and he was sentenced to 18 months and ordered to pay the city $19K, it partner was also received the same sentence.

shite I remember in the 90s when NOPD cops were putting out hits on people.

I was waiting for this story to show up here. I heard about it on the radio a couple days ago. I think it may have been a female cop. What color were cop and perp?

uhhh, actually, us liberals have been complaining about heavy handed police tactics for decades now.

Liberals yes, progressives NO ! I'll bookmark this one and return it when a "right wing" group revolts / loots / shitstorms a town in the name of "justice". I'm sure Maddow/Hayes/CNN/NYT and the rest of the prog propaganda press call for the military to shoot them on spot. While I agree about the militarization being a bad thing, I know progressives are FULL OF shite and only say this b/c a bunch of "disenfranchised " dysfunctionals are running wild in the street. If this were the "Tea Party" you / they would be all for the heavy handed police force and tactics to clamp down on them.
