Quite true...I am appalled by this sort of thing. My kids see this and think police are ‘bad’. I tell them this is few and far between, but it’s getting harder to defend them...there have been many incidents lately.
It doesn’t help that my son was harassed by a policeman for no reason...teenager. I told him never never argue, yes sir and no sir...get arrested if this is the only way. Do not give law enforcement a hard time...you just don’t know what could happen. He told me he was afraid the cop would plant something on him, and who would believe him. He wants to go into the air force and does no drugs of any sort...he used to watch lockup...this was very effective. The search rules need to be changed so planting evidence is not possible. The poor woman in Atlanta that was killed...in her late 80’s or 90’s...they found pot...later admitted it was a plant.
