Let me try to refine this for you.
When an individual person or singular event, whether LEO or not, commits a wrong against another (RKBA related) then the reporting of and discussion of it is acceptable here.
When collective, broad brush techniques are utilized, general conclusions made negative to certain groups, and/or negative descriptors are employed, then our rules are violated. Words like thug are a personal emotional opinion and only inflame the emotions of others - we should have better vocabularies and speak of the facts on a higher level i.e egregious actions, illegal response, proceeded w/o cause, etc.
So too, if a registrant/user routinely (developed a history) of searching for and posting a series of such incidents, they will be deemed in violation. OCDO has no intention of becoming CopWatch type forum. As much as any of you, I want the bad actors gone whether they be LEOs, legislators or user/members here.
On this forum, one will generally be given an explanation and frequently a warning when transgressions occur before other tools are utilized. There is no good reason to make yourself a target for administrative action detrimental to your ability to post here. We are all guests and should be responsibly adult enough to conduct ourselves in a manner acceptable to the wishes of John and Mike - positive public relations are most important - legislators, media, interested gun owners, antis et al read these pages.
Personally, I am of the opinion that OCDO is head and shoulders above the rest. Thanks in no small part to the great people here.
