Life in DC -- Cops Doing What They Want

Countersignature had a great post today about life inside the Beltway, including a story about DC cops violating the laws they are supposed to enforce.

I frequently see police cars rolling through red lights, often flipping on their flashing lights and turning them off once they are through -- not only in DC, but also in northern Virginia.

When cops violate the law in such a public manner it undermines their authority. And worse, as in this story, good cops often are punished for taking action against bad cops.

And they wonder why they don't always get respect.
