Reply to comment by [deleted] in After Arrest of 7 Cops, LAPD Reminds Its Own Officers Not to Drink and Drive by Exastiken

I mean, if you criminalize everything than everyone is a criminal. The average American breaks numerous laws each day, not out of any malice, but because our thousands upon thousands of laws are layered in such a way as to make sure we’re all guilty of something.

Did you have the wrong plant? Did you cross the street not in the 2% of road reserved for pedestrians? Is your house up to code? There’s always a law being broken and corrupt cops ready to use them.

You’ve clearly never had your life and freedom threatened by an emotionally volatile person feels in a heated situation.

That’s good, but it also seems to lack perspective on the current state of affairs. Mind you, I didn’t make the law that says it’s now okay to shoot cops who go too far, I just paid attention to the circumstances that made it necessary.
