This isn't a Songs for Saturday. It's important, it's political, it's inspiring, and you ought to go watch A Message to All Police Officers From Occupy Wall Street, delivered in an extremely powerful speech by an LAPD officer.

I hope that he's wrong that civilization is on it's last legs but he is a powerful speaker with a good message!

Fascinating. Thanks.

I don't think it invalidates the basic message that the police are often on the wrong side, but it certainly tends to do in the "collapse" argument.
