New documents reveal the FBI has cleared its agents in every single shooting incident dating back two decades. According to The New York Times, from 1993 until today, FBI shootings were deemed justified in the fatal shootings of 70 people and the wounding of 80 others. Out of 289 shootings that were found to be deliberate, no agent was disciplined except for letters of censure in five cases.

Those who choose to spend their lives 'Upholding the law' should be held to higher standards of ethics than the rest of us. No one forces you to become a police officer or FBI agent.

I almost think that we need police for the police. I know we have Departments of Internal Affairs, but those officers serving in those departments still respect the fraternity of police.
