    Not stopping for a traffic stop would be obstructing the police or something. Or, and this is super duper crazy, we could just take their license plate and send them the bill for speeding. It’s a civil offense.

    i suppose it could also be obstruction, that’s usually reserved for outside influence though. Or the odd case where something like resisting doesn’t work.

    In regards to your recommendation of what is essentially botnet spying on people, i’m going to have to give you a hard pass there. Cops very well could do that, and i suppose they could file for a ticket manually, but doing that automatically is a massive privacy violation, and insanely capable of being abused.

    Rape isn’t a human experience. There’s no “rape reflex” in our heads. That’s jumping to an extreme and illogical.

    i mean yeah, but it is also, a literal human experience. Which is what you used to define the prior statement. It’s a uniquely human experience and i don’t think you could classify it as anything else, considering that we developed an entire language, and then a word specifically for it, and have laws relating specifically to it.

    Bodycams being used for corrupt purposes by a corrupt force is not a micro technicality, it’s the entire fucking point.

    the specifics of them being used that way is, the broader existence of that concept is a more macro technicality.

    And nope, they will accuse you of crushing them while you were waiting for the cop to run your plates. An empty container is assumed to have been fully drunk while driving.

    fascinating.

    They don’t get their overtime by doing nothing. Only “earners” get the perks. And the courts and prosecutors are partial to the police because they need them to do their jobs and the police have power over them too.

    i suppose so, but idk what you really want me to say about it.

    If you look up Judges sending kids to Juvie for kickbacks you have to specify which scandal you mean.

    this is a correctional facility issue more broadly i would argue, i have significant issues with prison/jail and the way it works myself.

    The system is not on your side.

    i find it ironic, that you say this, and then argue for a system that literally spies on its own people, but you do you i guess.
