When the cops beat up citizens (many of whom ask for it), that is one thing but what about when the cops beat up other cops?? I wonder if this is more common than we think?

An ambulance driver isn't a Cop.

No he is not but technically speaking, to the public, a paramedic, firefighter and cop are kind of the "3 flavours" of public safety. I just wondered why we are seeing this. My suspicion is that it has went on for awhile but was just handled internally before. When I was in the military there were occassional fistacuffs and they were always handled within the unit.

What happens when one Harvard professor beats up another Harvard professor or accuses him/her of being a racist? Any articles on that one?

I'm more inclined to think it was over who got the last donut.
