In a conversation with my newspaper editor last week, concerning my column, he mentioned that he also doesn't trust cops, but that doesn't mean he trusts the people who sue the cops- particularly when they wait a year or more to file the suit.
Well, I don't necessarily automatically trust anyone, but I know cops lie as a matter of course. It's a required part of holding the "job".
Sure, a guy who sues the cops and wants to be paid millions of "tax" dollars also has an incentive to lie.
No one gets my trust automatically. And who is it more important for me, personally, to be wary of? Who can do me the most damage, with the least chance of me being able to fight back effectively? It's not the guy suing the cops, even if the cops are- in this case- "innocent".
