"The police are not in jail because they are the police?" I don't think I follow. What is a policeman, Matt? According to most people, is it not someone who must abide by and enforce the law?
Why do they get a "by" for harassing law-abiding citizens and unlawfully taking their property where you and I cannot?
Again, why are they not in jail? Were their actions not unlawful? I ask the same about the New Orleans police who unlawfully confiscated firearms. Any other person would be in prison for unlawfully taking other people's property. Why not them? Why weren't those "few bad apples" thrown into prison? Why aren't the "few bad apples" that swarmed and began to beat a non-resisting man in Baltimore not sitting in prison, where you and I would be, if we were to do what they did (which was unlawful.)
