I know you're being funny...but in reality, IF you try to protect yourself from a cop...they shoot you dead.
Something needs to be done about it for sure. Cops need to be reigned in. As it stands now, they can do anything they want to you. Yeah, you can fight them in court later (and keep in mind that these cops are all friends and co-workers with the judges and prosecutors)...but when a cop confronts you on the street, you are at their mercy.
And it's becoming more and more common for them to take full advantage of that.
Last night, for instance, I was going out to have some drinks and I saw 2 cop cars and a motorcycle cop pulled over by a Walgreens. All of them had their lights going.
Three vehicles. Five cops. This must be something BIG!!!!
Nope, it was an old guy who was so drunk he could barely stand up.
So it took 5 cops and three vehicles to apprehend this elderly public drunk.

Thank God it wasn't a soccer mom speeding in a mini-van. That usually requires half the police force with weapons drawn.
