... except for those times when someone is complying with their orders and still gets killed.
Again, that depends on where you live doesn't it? I have never been stopped and searched in my life, not in England, not in France (all papers should be carried at all times in France so, if it ever happened, I'm fucked.) When I go to work, I am discrete, when I work, I am discrete, and when I come home and help my girlfriend with the housework, I am discrete. If someone politely asks me to do something i.e. a work colleague, a police officer or my girlfriend, I will gladly help because I am like that. If I had been a right bastard outside, giving the cops a real mouthful, acting all hard like, then I wouldn't be here. Anyway, I know that French police officers and English police officers seldom hit people, they might restrain them with force, but that is about it. What you have in America, is wrong on so many levels. Isn't there anyone in power who can rewrite the law and police powers of arrest?
