>> "hundreds of G8 pacific protesters were brutalized and tortured by Italian police. Whilst the police has been found guilty of this, none of the policemen is serving any jail time."

If police commit crimes, they must be held accountable.

Plenty of police in jail in America. They're just harder to convict. Easier to get them fired. Italy is exponentially worse than America on this issue.

And I say that as an activist against police corruption here who also lives in a murder capital. Police pulling shit that bad here is rare outside the "hoods" where it's thugs and low income people nobody cares about. Still usually just a ticket, thrown on a car, or a brief taser. The worst plant shit on people but they're very rare.
