Well, freedom of speech goes both ways. They should be as free to spew bullshit as any American is. At the same time, they should be shit-canned for lying to civilians, just like any of us would be fired for calling a nigger a nigger in front of an HR director at the office. Just playing devil's advocate here, really. Cops ought to be held to a higher standard.
