WILL THE DISGUSTING FACE OF POLICING CHANGE?

Rodney King, Robert Dziekanski and Sammy Yatim have something in common and that is that police brutality and lying is being exposed. Cell phones and cameras are putting the power back into the hands of the people. If you want to beat and murder individuals then you are going to do it publicly in front of thousands and you will be held accountable. Today's Waterloo Region Record carrys an Editorial titled "Another view: Big Brother is being watched". Some of the quotes from the Record's Editorial are hair raising such as "Some eyebrows would have been raised, given the troubling history of Toronto police shooting mentally ill people in the act of brandishing various household implements (a paring knife, scissors, a small hammer)." A second quote is crystal clear "Videos made it obvious that there was no compelling need for an officer to open fire on the teenager." Does it get any clearer than that? Have Toronto police and police brass learned nothing since the G20 fiasco when they abused the rights of thousands of citizens? Those abuses included unlawful detention and beatings. When did Canada become a third world country and when will it be restored to it's former glory? Shame on the Toronto cops and shame on their so called superiors.
