(62,325 posts)the police look like a Military Goon Squad from some third world dictatorship. When they shoot at and sometimes kill protesters who are unarmed.
When they target certain sections of the population, spy on them, beat them up, throw them in jail for simply having opinions.
We live in a Police State and it's only getting worse.
I imagine other places when they saw the signs thought the same thing, 'hey, well some of us can still say things, WOW, they give us PERMISSION to say a few things about them, so no, we don't live in a police state'. And then there they were, living in a full blown police state.
Killing civilians at will, rarely if ever held accountable, THAT is a police state. I don't need more than that, with their tanks and their militarized weapons. And their 'fusion centers' and their spy apparatus etc etc.
It's gone plenty far enough for my taste, thank you.
