Mostly off topic but it does have to do with the rule of law:
This caught my eye:
MILWAUKEE POLICE VOTE ‘NO CONFIDENCE’ IN CHIEF
Milwaukee police have taken a vote that expresses no confidence in their chief after he fired a white officer who shot and killed a black man in a downtown park.
Union president Mike Crivello announced Friday that about 99 percent of the votes expressed no confidence in Chief Edward Flynn.
[…]
Officers are angry over the firing of Christopher Manney, who shot 31-year-old Dontre Hamilton on April 30. Hamilton had been sleeping in the park. The two struggled during a pat down and Hamilton grabbed the officer’s baton and struck him in the neck. Manney then shot Hamilton 14 times.
Flynn said he fired Manney for instigating the fight.
I think this takes the whole brotherhood-of-police thing way too far. Group-think is always troublesome, but I find it particularly so when it comes to police.
