Christine,
It is your way to try to back up your statements with research and you do a lot of it. I have noticed that. But I don't have that kind of time really. It's unreasonable to expect me to cite chapter and verse whenever I say something you disagree with, which is what always happens. And you do that with everyone else too. Just because I'm too pressed for time OR too lazy to get it doesn't constitute proof that the cases (in this instance) don't exist. They do. But I have seen you use the same argument with everyone you disagree with. You batter them with demands of proof.

And nobody can say that government law enforcement hasn't in recent decades shown an over aggressive attitude in carrying out there job. A black man recently died in my nearest city because 3 police officers subdued him and one of them used excessive force (the sleeper choke hold) which killed him. They will get away with it too. Police brutality is rampant IMO. You know that. And it has infected all the law enforcement agencies. Power corrupts, and I think that's what we are seeing. And it's a uniform corruption we should be very worried about. In local law enforcement, the BATF, the FBI.
