Yea. It's a big problem. Just like police brutality is a big problem. When you don't blindly follow a political party's ideology (see Kap), you are allowed to see the truth. The biggest threat to our individual freedoms are our police and the growing police state. On a national level, it's terrorism of course. The irony is that our personal freedoms are eroding from WITHIN because of Muslim extremism and terrorism. We are slowly becoming what a Muslim nation is...all in the name of preserving freedom and combatting terrorism.
Recent Supreme Court decisions have made it worse. We have "liberal" and "conservative" justices basically condoning profiling and illegal searches all in the name of preserving freedom.
I have had a client's faced smashed in by police without provocation. I have had MANY officers blatantly falsify police reports that were contradicted by video evidence and testimony by impartial bystanders. I have had a client shot and killed by officers where it took me a full year to get the "aftermath" interviews because of all the litigation the police union threw in my face. I have watched a DA, who I previously respected, half *** prosecute a police officer who punched a 16 yr old Hispanic kid while interviewing him without his parents present. This officer had two swastikas tattooed on the inside of each wrist. The officer took a plea deal AND is still employed by law enforcement at the same agency. The biggest issue is not that there are bad apples in law enforcement, there are bad apples in every profession. The issue is that there is a systematic coverup and protection system for the few that are police thugs. The unions are ridiculous. Also, who is gonna prosecute these guys? Their DA, similar thinking, friends?
Kap is 100% correct about his point. He is an idiot for the way he presents it and brings awareness to it because it creates a knee jerk reaction where a rational discussion cannot be had. And...he is a hypocrite for wearing a Castro shirt.
