Student shot with Taser by UCPD officers

If we want to connect the dots properly, we should wait for the next shoe to drop.

If the couldn't-get-a-real-cop-job cops are punished, if the lad wins in a lawsuit, if the public reaction is one of horror and not he-deserved-it finger wagging, then we are truly not in a 1984ish fascist situation.

In fact to conceive of Homeland Security as offering us a fascist situation and not merely federal policing in an often-incompetent government is a leap.

One way we know this, is that we feel free to say these things on this thread.
