And that event was followed by a decade of litigation, people losing their jobs, and multi million dollar payouts from the city. Not saying this is justice to make up for that atrocity by any means. But do you think any of this is happening in actual police states?

What I’m saying is that since then the same thing has been more prevalent throughout the country as a whole. Just because it’s drizzling doesn’t mean it’s not raining. A police state can definitely be a thing in the United States given enough time and “good intentions”.

Getting killed for a “petty crime” is the definition of a police state. Dingleberry.

He wasn’t intentionally killed. The state did not sanction an execution
