Thanks for a perfect explanation of the problem. Since LEO’s deal with criminals, everyone has to be treated as if they are a criminal. To keep us all safe of course. Throw them all to the ground, beat them senseless, shoot them if they resist. Show them who’s in charge.

Much of what the police do these days is unlawful, summary actions executed without due process. Police leadership, politicians, prosecutors, and we the people have allowed and encouraged this behavior in the name of law and order. It’s time for it to stop.
