The cop got a minor slap on the wrist, the jeweler got no significant punishment. Crooked cops know that they can get away with stuff in San Diego!


One deputy out of 4,000 in San Diego? Hardly what I would call a tidal wave of corrupt officers.

One police officer out of 1,700 in the SDPD? Another example of the underwhelming level of corruption.

Come on, goat, you can do better than that.

Don’t be naive. Many crooked cops in city and county of San Diego.
They never get prosecuted, because good cops cover up crimes committed by bad cops, and the union protects crooked cops.
The whole system is rotten. Impossible to stop or get rid of bad cops.





Woke!

Better get rid of the unions then.

California f'd up the legalization. Overbearing bureaucracy, high tax rates and inconsistent local regulations. What do you expect when you make it profitable for the unlicensed businesses and impossible for businesses to legally operate.

Good for Mexico to legalize pot. But laws are one thing, implementation is another.

Calif did not flock up the legalization. The pre-legalization drug dealers never got stamped out, they just opened up illegal storefronts. Cops have to quit taking bribes and close down the black market drug dealers, so legal/licensed drug dealers can operate as intended by law.

...cops need to spend less time eating donuts, more time weeding out the black market operations...

Maybe the federal government should start a "War on Drugs" and spend hundreds of billions on law enforcement agencies like the DEA. We can get all the dealers and suppliers locked up for sure.

Oh, we've tried that for 50 years now and it's a complete failure.

If you're going to criticize, why not try some constructive criticism? Maybe you have a "brilliant" suggestion on how to handle this issue? You pontificate on most everything and everyone. What's your "informed" idea for this issue?

Kvetching about cops doesn't solve anything.

In Orange County cops are shutting down illegal shops everyday. I know first hand because they call me to open the safes from the shops shut down.

I actually agree with John Harper on this one, stop crying and do something about it goat.
