I believe the police should not have so much power because their basically able to do anything they want and be able to get away with it. What normally happens to someone with power? They get greedy, over whelmed, thick headed, and of course, controlling.
I've heard many storeys of police purposely planting evidence in peoples homes just so they can bring them in for questioning or to just bust them, because the police as they say "I had a feeling in my gut he/she is the one".
I've also heard that a police officer was behind a car at a drive thru and like usual the worker hands out a bag of the customers order, and some how the police officer said that, that looked suspicious and he got out of his car and searched the customers bag, and found an ounce of marijuana in the bag. Now how would a normal human being all of a sudden know whats hiding in a bag at a fast food drive thru? Does this mean a police officer can check every ones bag of food just because he wants to know what you ordered?
I myself have a example of getting in trouble with the law and all for dumb reasons. My first time I got in trouble with the law was from a traffic ticket, I was crewsin down the street in a 1975 F-250 Ford pickup and there was a light coming up ahead and I got about a truck length an a half away from the white crosswalk painted lines. The light turned yellow at that time and I tried stopping but there was no way I could of in time in my big pickup so i kept going and went all the way through the light and after I got about 20 feet or more through the light it turned red. Now the police officer pulled me over about a mile away after the light and gave me a ticket for running a red light. Which in fact it was yellow and as anyone knows. The law enforcer's word rules over a normal working citizens word. He tried telling me "oh I have you on video" and such but the police officer would never show me this video. I argued about this in court and guessed how it turned out? Yup you guessed it I had to pay the fine.
