A little reminder to those that have never watched an episode of COPS; many cops are killed or injured trying to issue a fucking speeding ticket, assuming that this suspect will not hurt them will get them killed.

i'm using generalities to illustrate my view.
fact is, how many spare cops are there for a 100 warrant roundup in a town with 5000 occupants?
how many ~7 man posses could a burrough this size drum up?
i understand cops put their lives on the line in basic confrontations, i get that. i know how to handle myself when confronted by the police to keep that part cool. she did not. i get that.
my point is escalation on a poorly thought out and executed warrant roundup should not be proper procedure. this sort of shit should have been anticipated and a proper plan pre-determined. certainly not standing around in front of her home telling her they need to talk about her grass being too tall.
that's not professional. it is understandable, simply because it's understandable a 100 warrant roundup in a town of 5000 is bound to be a clusterfuck at some point.
