Highway Interdiction or Just Give Me Your Money
#2
What a luvvely war.

Quote:A thriving subculture of road officers on the network now competes to see who can seize the most cash and contraband, describing their exploits in the network's chat rooms and sharing "trophy shots" of money and drugs. Some police advocate highway interdiction as a way of raising revenue for cash-strapped municipalities.


Do they also pose with motorists ears on a string around their necks, like a string of trophy pearls?

Anyway, aggressive policing has changed the entire dynamic of "serve and protect" (the people) to "serving up the people" and "protecting police budgets and income". Citizens are now the dangerous enemy of the state to be used and abused -- and not their ultimate employers.

The world has shifted upside down.
The shadow is a moral problem that challenges the whole ego-personality, for no one can become conscious of the shadow without considerable moral effort. To become conscious of it involves recognizing the dark aspects of the personality as present and real. This act is the essential condition for any kind of self-knowledge.
Carl Jung - Aion (1951). CW 9, Part II: P.14
