You'll be amazed how quickly odd bedfellows kicks in when you really consider that a police force by definition is essentially a socially sanctioned criminal organization.

We have proof that law enforcement can:

-Steal from you. (Civil Asset forfeiture, no warrant required) -Apply excessive force with good odds of not having to explain themselves. -Lie to your face. -kidnap you -Utilize illegal/unconstitutional investigation techniques, then launder the evidence through parallel construction.

We also have proof that LE is nowhere near as good or thorough as they should be regulating themselves.

The "I have nothing to hide" is spoken like someone who has never been on the wrong side of an automated, impersonal system before. It'sall fun and games and justifiable until it's you caught in the civil rights blast crater.

I'd prefer no one ended up as collateral damage. It is better criminals go free than innocents get caught in dragnets.
