Too Much Police Brutality

OK, so this cartoon never published. With all the police brutality in Denver, the powers that be thought this cartoon was just to much. I am working on the same joke with out the cop kneeling on the guys neck. I think the joke is solid. This bottle bomb is serious stuff, but I do think it is a bunch of bored teenagers. I am surprised we haven't heard of any kids loosing fingers or hands to these bombs yet. Is it just a matter of time? Let me know what you think of the police brutality. Did I go over the top here?
Thanks for reading.

Call me kookey, but how can one man lead both the Police Department and the Fire Department. Will it really "save" tax payers money? What about the extra hours of miss communication between the divisions. Also, can the Fire Department trust that Butler has their best interests at heart. I am sure that he's a good man, but a discouraged department might not think so.
