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?
Well, we're discussing the riots in America -- you know, that place you've never been full of people not one of which you've met ... that place that arouses your indignance even as your curiosity remains dormant as ever.
As to your question, has the thought occurred to you that police can be and sometimes are criminals who break laws?
Bold is mine.
I will rephrase it then. What would you like the higher powers to do to create a fair and just legal system?
