    In 2008, Police = Criminals

    I've read enough stories like this in the last few years to conclude that we cannot trust the police, that the police are our enemies, not our friends, and that all the post-arrest lawsuits and damage awards are merely the costs that our lords and masters are willing to pay for in order to prevent dissent.

    I never thought that I woud agree with G. Gordon Liddy on anything, but he was right: the police are nothing but jack-booted thugs.
