I few twists with words can make anything legit on an officer's paperwork, and believe me this is tought in the Academies and during the 80 hours a year on in-service training regarding search and seizure. I'm speaking from 10 years of experience. I'm being honest when I say that we as regular citizens have NO RIGHTS when walking about in the public. And we only have a FEW RIGHTS in the sanctuary of our own homes. My beliefs of individual's rights and freedom always conflicted with the job I did, hence the reason I was called "soft" by my peers regardless of the fact that I was 235lbs of steroided muscle. The term "rights" is very vague and that's why they can fuck with us in court. We are all GUILTY until proven INNOCENT and that's a fact. Will live in an accusatory time.
