a sweet little victory against the police state

the good guys had a nice little win against the exploding police state in eugene.  the local stormtroopers may not be the nypd, lapd or oakland pd thugs, yet, but no matter where you live the bullshit 'protect and serve' only applies to the 1%.  i always teach my children that the police are never to be trusted and only to be used with utmost caution.  involving the terrible power of the police or the state in any other manner is always dangerous and more likely to harm you than help you.  i tell them that should never tell the police anything that is one syllable more than is absolutely necessary to protect their lives at that moment.  however, any time we can roll back their arbitrary terror powers and curb the scope of the police, that is a win.
