Oh look, the pro "law and order (and theft and assault and murder)" folks are flagging my comments.

Gotta love voting/flagging rings.

Just HOW many stories of civil asset forfeiture, blatant theft, assault, murder, and everything do we need to see that policing in this country is a criminal gang backed by government?

And even for simpler crap that everyone gets hit by, is speed limit laws. You can be pulled over for even 1mph over 'limit'. And more gross, is that its not a safety issue, but a revenue enhancement issue. Its a way they can steal legally, AND fish for more things to screw you over with.

And naturally, any thing these pigs do "in the operation of policing" makes them immune, for <handwaving magical> reasons.
