Police Accountability

I very much thank and admire the agencies who are using the appropriate tools to help prevent officers from breaking the very laws they are sworn to uphold.

(LOS ANGELES) - In California, the Peace Officers Bill of Rights needs to be reviewed and revised. Especially section 3007 and others.

This article by the Orange County Register says it all.

"California laws strengthened wall of silence around officers." http://shar.es/lITUZ

Wherever you are, in California or not, you can do 'something' in your own jurisdictions on the issue of holding all levels of law enforcement, security, military, etc., accountable for the oath they are sworn to uphold.

It's a shame when we have the tools, but they are not being fully utilized.

The honest, brave officers with integrity deserve better.

Let's get this done folks. And never give up. For the good of the collective whole.

RANDOM. ROUTINE.

Break the code. Break the culture.

And Walk the Talk.
