If ignorance of the law is no excuse, that should go double for cops.

People threaten to sue cops all the time. Seems like a symptom of today's entitlementmentality to me. No offense just my opinion.

Even humans should be held responsible for their actions if they make a mistake. We won't have much luck trying to arrest a cop, so civil courts are the best equalizer. Unless you want people being vigilantes instead.
