the police are not part of the military. what happened to them was a violation of the department of labor code and probably human rights. if they were not fed nor given break for more than 8 hours, then it is a violation. for you who are berating these men in uniform too, try being in their shoes. they're just as human as you, needs food, rest and the basic necessities in life. do not expect these police officers to be heroes for a meager pay. sure there are some bad apples, but not all apples in the basket are bad
