downfall of society. pfft.

you're asking police to protect us, yet want to hamstring them from doing so. Do you actually think that the rank-and-file police officer has any interest whatsoever in undermining the rights of law-abiding citizens? Obviously you do. Try an alternative explanation:

The cop was approached by a city employee who said that someone was refusing to move their car from a private lot. Upon investigation, he found a person with a hostile attitude pulling out the same old chestnuts about "police states" and nazis. After talking to the jackass for awhile and getting reamed out for doing his job, he let him go, but not before radioing to his colleagues that there was a jackass afoot, and to make sure he wasn't actually aggro.

Jackass made it to the venue and encountered another cop, who recognized his description. She went to check his credentials and was immediately greeted with a volley of bullshit attitude and general unfriendliness. She, too, woke up that morning with no other goal than to make sure nobody got hurt on her watch.

We don't pay these people enough.
