Drivers Beware: The Deadly Perils of Traffic Stops in the American Police State
I am wondering if any slave was ever treated as badly and disrespectfully as a “free” American stopped by the police.
Abusive police are the product of “law and order conservatives,” Republican judges, and Israeli training of the police.
Americans would be far safer if there were no police. The police motto, “protect and serve,” is nonsense. Federal courts have ruled that the police have no responsibility to protect us. Their function is to police us at no peril to themselves, only to us.
Police are supposed to investigate and solve crimes and prepare cases for prosecutors. But what police mainly do is to commit crimes against the citizens that pay their salaries and retirement benefits.
Police almost never prevent a crime, and they seldom solve one. It is easier for police to see who in the area has a record for a similar crime, pick them up, and pile on charges so that the defendant’s attorney enters a plea agreement. Neither police nor prosecutor cares who is convicted. Their only concern is to have a good conviction record, which is measured by numbers and not by justice served.
