The Dallas cop that prevented the football player from visiting an ill relative before she died so that he could write a traffic ticket has resigned from the police department.
He deserved derision and some humbling for his arrogance.. he deserved to learn that his job, what cops get paid for, is assisting and working FOR the general public. The job is NOT to be an asshole.
Quitting the job is over reacting.. it was a bad decision, but not one that should cost a person their job if they otherwise do a good job.

Slightly related.. have you noticed an up-tick in people going crazy and shooting large numbers of people lately? It seems to me that would happen when economic conditions get bad. I'm sure not all the recent events are directly related, but it wouldn't be surprising either.
And of course, the right wing lunatic thinking on this would be that if everyone carried a gun, they'd be able to shoot the shooter to death before he can unload his clips. uh huh..
I'd imagine that it's stressful for cops to have to deal with crazy people with guns. It's understandable they're very cautious. It's also understandable that the police are also very much in favor of gun control... those Liberal hippies..
