In other words, people who are sworn to uphold the law and thereby the level of of civil behavior in society are contributing to an overall lowering of the level of respect for both. <br /><br />The RCMP needs to be gutted and rebuilt. Unfortunately, the majority of people capable of doing police work are already part of the problem. Could a strong, common sense civilian leader oversee such a process? Sure, if they had some military experience maybe. The RCMP is more a para-military organization that most police dept.'s are, and as such is even more highly resistant to change. Unfortunately Canada doesn't have Winston Churchill or a reasonable facsimile thereof waiting in the wings to tackle the problem, "Neville Harper" having proven inadequate to the task.<br /><br />The RCMP needs to rebuild itself, but they are basically saying at every turn in the road, "Fuck you, we'll do what we want". Sounds like something a criminal would say. And as has been demonstrated over and over, they will continue to get away with it. Nothing will change until we start putting cops in jail on a regular basis who prove they deserve to be there.<br /><br />Obviously the RCMP is doing something wrong when it comes to screening. They seem to attract a lot of people whose behavior is less than sterling who see the attraction of "membership" as, in addition to the paycheck and secure job, the ability to do as they wish without real fear of sanction.trailrunner78https://www.blogger.com/profile/06694102447472594355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6576246045591350665.post-30433939939058046342012-08-03T12:35:19.823-07:002012-08-03T12:35:19.823-07:00Yeah, isn't it, like, *hundreds* of officers.....Yeah, isn't it, like, *hundreds* of officers...?
