L.A. County Sheriff's Department intends to fire seven deputies

Filthy street thugs, that's what cops are. They're just another gang in a sea of gangs.

yup...yup...yup...they behave like one, think like one and treat everyone else as prey

In the article they made it clear that they weren't violent huh? The one's who were involved in shootings were the only ones getting the tattoos though...

Cop gang,plain and simple. The pigs deserve more than firing. The pigs were giving pubic authority and trust. Jail seems appropriate for the gang members. They will just go to a different department and pass on what they know. Have a bunch of thugs in smaller towns, enforcing their rules. Everyone's a winner this way.

Sounds like the Dirty Harry movie "Magnum Force".
