Police aren't the right's or the left's friend. They're just government beatsticks dedicated to enforcing BS rules (taking our guns?) by those with more political power than you. On top of that it's an after-college frat house for some of the least intelligent and most aggressive members of our society (violent criminals being the other ones). Anyone ever stop to consider how they're two sides of the same coin?
There are legal precedent where scoring too well on their tests, proving that you're too smart to follow the most questionable orders, is enough to get you barred from being a police officer. They want the dumbest brutes around that won't question their laws. When was the last time police stopped a violent crime near you, located your stolen goods, or even assisted you in defending yourself? Or do you only see them when their giving you a speeding ticket to help meet the city's budget needs? How about when they're lying to you to trick you into giving away your legal rights in order to make their jobs easier?
The only people that become police are those with a power fetish or those who want to do good, but are too stupid to realize that becoming a police officer is the worst possible way to try and do it.
Police should have checks and balances just like all the other parts of our government. Right now we as people have no way to prevent police from abusing their power other than to hope that we can afford to take it to court and that it's a big enough deal to do so.
