My husband is a Chattanooga police officer and there are still good guys that are in law enforcement. The problem is that they are promoted based on who they know and what skin color they have. I believe that the most qualified person should be promoted and put in a position of leadership. My husband has been passed over for promotion 5 times and he has a college degree, working on his masters and military leadership skills. He is seriously looking at making a career move because people like him are constantly getting passed over for promotion. People like Billy Long are being put in these positions because of their popularity. These departments need to be investigated and they need to be exposed. Any body can get a badge and a gun if you have a clear record. Just because you have a clear record does not mean that you should be a police officer. There are many officers that are waiting to make that first arrest because it is a high for them. It is not about cleaning up the streets. It is about how it makes them feel. This madness will continue on unless someone takes a stand and says enough is enough.
