POT RAID VIDEO LAWSUIT HYPOCRITICAL

Re: "Officers sue to quash video" [Front page, Aug. 4]: I am trying 
to come up with the words to express my outrage and fear for the 
future of our society and for our system of government in regard to 
the Santa Ana Police Officers Association suit to prevent the use of 
the video from the raid on the Sky High Collective. No words seem 
strong enough.

I still subscribe to the belief that most police personnel enter the 
profession for the right reasons and with the right attitude  the 
audacity of this ill-advised suit challenges that belief. When police 
appear to behave badly and then attempt to erase any evidence of that 
bad behavior it further erodes our faith in those who protect our way of life.
