Like others on this forum, I have close relatives in Law Enforcement, and I also worked with them for 10yrs of my life. It's a tough life, and often times, thankless. I can't imagine how they're going to do their jobs after all this? Yes, there are some bad apples, but predominantly, those are rare. I worked with some that were not great cops, and thankfully no longer in the business. All these deaths are tragic, but the victims are hardly innocent lambs in these examples. These officers were called to the scene(s) of these situations. For some to say, just let them walk home, or whatever? Really? Perhaps when you're the victim of a crime, I'd like to see the look on your face, when the officer decides to just let the suspect walk? Like BTK said, just watch what happens if this thinking continues...Sad.
Oh, and I only have one child in this world, and it's a girl(wonderful young lady and mother now). To liken a scantily clad women getting raped, to a person being detained/arrested for committing a crime, is not at all related?!
