I am in total disbelief at the remarks of John Hickenlooper and Denver police chief Jerry Whitman. Their remarks yesterday backing the police department and minimalizing the dramatic increase of police brutality cases is shocking. The public continues to be infuriated by them. “we back and support our officers 100%” it is not the time. It is time to be critical and to make we will not tolerate this kind of brutality anymore. It is not the time to blame an independent report which finds rampant brutality in Denver PD. It is time to fess up. It is time to say how truly disappointed you are in the Denver PD. it is not the time for the Police Union to play the victim card. They are not victims. We are. It is not time to blame blogs and talk radio and the news for staying on this story. It is time to admit the Denver police department is one screwed is mess.
