    Maybe if the cops hadn’t spent the past decades eroding public trust something like this wouldn’t happen. There could have been a valid and good reason for the person to be arrested but at this point everyone assumes the cops are in the wrong as the cops are never held accountable for being wrong.

          Not really. There’s something for everyone to hate, without any details at all about what was really going on

          The ACAB types are going to be all angry they were ever trying to arrest the guy… the law-and-order types are going to be angry that they didn’t get him.
