[QUOTE="Tampa03cobra, post: 8062910, member: 41633"] I know this is a double post, but I wanted to touch on these points separately from the others. I agree, the average police officer does not possess an adequate amount of education, training, or management experience to be placed in that position of authority without a check and balance. Look at what it takes to become a judge, there is a reason why the criteria for becoming one is so strict, and the level of education required is staggering, and with good reason. Hell their are still judges out there that aren't qualified, but it's not due to lack of intelligence, just political agenda's over ruling common sense, but the judge has an appeals court and a jury of peers in most case as a check and balance. Obviously violent and felony matters are different, but in cases like this, it infuriates me to no end the self righteous and flagrant feeling of entitlement to authority I see in the newest batch of a police, it's a scary trend that is only getting worse in this area. The police used to be very welcome here, now most businesses do everything in their power to make sure police are not loitering in their parking lots. It's too bad, used to be your local police officer was a friend, neighbor and someone you could rely on no matter what. They have turned into almost an elitist, self entitled culture of their own here in Tampa and no I haven't been pulled over or have some axe to grind, I just really feel they are failing to receive the proper training or guidance for use of their powers and the city is suffering as a result.
