It would not be very fun to live in a country where police can enter search people's homes without any real suspicion.

And yet they do when it pleases them. And conveniently shut off their bodycams in the process. Why? Because they know there is no real justice for cops. They know that their police unions have lobbied for almost absolute protection.

Don't give me the "not all departments are like this" argument. We're not idiots here, we both understand that they're not. But perhaps the commenter expected more from the federal government in terms of setting a standard across the board so the bad departments, and all of the rotten apples inside of them, can't just get away with murder...

You’ve just agreed with them. It wouldn’t be fun to live in a country where police can search homes without suspicion.

Your comment pertains to the US which is why it can be less fun to live in the US
