I don't mean to flame, but come on, cops are not minions of the devil sent to infringe on liberties and rights.
I dont know what nice little community you live in, but around in So Cal., the cops are all about harrassment, and what you call occasional slip-ups...we call cops planting evidence to build a case or straight extortion all together. I have spent many years in both So. Cal and Chicago and can say from first hand that the MASS MAJORITY of cops I have ever seen/delt with, are completly dirty to the bone. We are far from the days of cops helping old ladies get thier cat out of a tree. Have you never heard of Rampart division, Miami Dade Vice or Signal Hill P.D.? These are not just isolated incidents. :wtf:
