That's what one guy I know says all the time about some of this policing stuff.
Phila. judge overturns 158 convictions tied to rogue narcotics cops-- "Public defender Bradley S. Bridge estimated that Friday's total brings to 560 the convictions involving the seven officers that have been vacated since they were indicted by a federal grand jury in July 2014... Woods-Skipper set another hearing for Oct. 30, at which an additional 40 convictions are expected to be reversed."
The War On Drugs
Untold millions of dollars in property has been seized by government who then spent or enjoyed the booty taken thereof. Homes have been broken into and people killed for having less then a few grams.
These are not the only clowns who've taken advantage of the war on drugs. It's absolutely necessary to stem the flow, but it's getting really tough to distinguish between who the bad guys are from the good.
If a bunch of idiots want to abuse drugs are they more dangerous to our freedoms then those who are suppose to protect us from them?
We really need to revisit these vice issues concerning low level drugs, prostitution and illegal gambling. Which ones make us safer and those which do not.
