Cops Aren't Such Bad Guys

COPS AREN’T SUCH BAD GUYS features a series of chapters about cops and fatal shootings.  As discussed, most of these killings are justified, due to the use of force guidelines which cops follow in the face of a deadly threat, despite the widespread anger and protests against the cops.

But this reaction is fueled by misinformation and sensational media coverage, while the cops involved in these shootings have their lives upended by extensive hearings and huge financial expenses.

This book describes the truth behind the headline stories that demonize cops.
