How often do we hear of LEO assaulting someone, then resigning without assault charges being filed? Can you say Officer Daniel Andrews? Resignation or suspension – as if that equates to what would happen to the very citizenry LE is supposed to be protecting. Most citizens believe that if the Officer committed a crime, then they should be charged! But, apparently, not the Police.
And now comes along the Police Bill Of Rights!
These are “Rights“, afforded Police Officers in the aftermath of a lethal shooting.
These protocols are 180° away from the Rights you and I, the Second Class citizen, are afforded.
SNIP
Who in their right mind believes LEO should be afforded special protections during an investigation into the aftermath of an Officer involved shooting?
If you should ever be compelled to defend yourself from a violent attack and are forced to shoot the attacker, you can expect to have LE show up and treat you as a suspect in a homicide. It’s how they are trained and it’s just one of the reasons why you’re taught to give the basic information of the attack – that you were in fear of your life, point out witnesses, shell casings, anything that may be construed as evidence and then politely tell the Officer you want to help with the investigation, but at this time you will not be answering anymore questions until you’ve had an opportunity to consult with your attorney… and stick to it!
You will be prodded for the particulars. You will be told that it’s better to get the story while it’s still fresh in your mind. Your gun will be confiscated. You will be interrogated. You will take a ride.
Though rest assured, you will not be treated as a respected Brother in Blue.
Something is wrong in this Country when the protections of citizens Rights take a back seat to those who are sworn to protect us.
Something is very wrong.

I'm going to participate in LEO bashing but nobody should be above the law.

Re: Police Bill of Rights
I think the rank and file LEOs may have been sold out by their leadership and FOP. First, the leadership alienated LEOs from probably the most law abiding segment of society by opposing CCW laws. Now LEOs are under renewed attack from the least law abiding segments of society. I think the plan is to alienate LEOs from the people they serve so that when asked to follow unethical orders (confiscation) the social mores which would have possibly prevented carrying out such orders will not come into play. You cannot create a Us vs Them mentality without a Them.

Re: Police Bill of Rights
I think LEO's have alienated themselves from law abiding citizens. Here are a few reasons why I fell that way:
1. They now have there own flag. I can't think of ANY other trade that does.
2.When a LEO die's, cops come from nearly every state, on company time, in a company car,on the clock, to attend a grandious funeral fit for the Pope.
3. Why do SWAT cops wear camo and cover there faces with masks?
THEY separated themselves.
I think they have the Master/Servant relationship mixed up.

I guess it's a joke. They are pretending that they are SF,Force Recon, SEALs, or Army Rangers. They call themselves "operators".
They are playing pretend.
A bad joke,IMO.
