“Abuse of power in any form is irreprehensible. The selling of our rights to corporations makes me agree with Hop's comment that we are not the people; we are not equal...etc. Those that have, will use any and all diversions to keep us blindly flailing at shadows while they run our lives.”

“This is what happens when the police are afraid of the people they are supposed to protect and serve. I too remember many parties broken up by the friendly neighbor hood policeman. Sometimes he even delivered us to our homes; now that's what "to protect and serve" means.”
