9865 cops and beatings -- rank: 46

I don't think it's anyones job to decide who 'deserves' to be beaten. I find the concept that anyone deserves to be beaten by the state bizarre. Prosecutors work WITH cops to control people. Their jobs are connected. Very much birds of a feather flocking together I should think ...
