Supreme Court dismisses federal government's attempt to stop a massive class-action lawsuit against the RCMP from going ahead.

The lead plaintiffs allege that internal channels within the RCMP to handle complaints of bullying and harassment are ineffective because they depend on the chain of command.

The two lead plaintiffs, veteran RCMP members Geoffrey Greenwood and Todd Gray, allege "systemic negligence" in how the national police force has handled bullying and harassment allegations.

It doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out, if they treat their own like this how do they treat the rest of us. The majority are narcissistic bullies, lashing out at society for a variety of reasons. Time to weed out the bad ones and replace them.

The complete lack of federal accountability and transparency is alarming and dangerous.

There will be more lawsuits to come, time for a big overhaul in the way the RCMP are trained.

The police should never police itself
