re: #338 Higgs Boson’s Mate

Maybe wearing those bracelets is their way of compensating for the fact that they can’t produce the real Darren Wilson. And here I thought that, in America, if you haven’t done anything wrong then you have nothing to be afraid of.

I wish that was true, but I’ve know it wasn’t since I was a teenager. Its true that US cops aren’t bad by the standards of the world (the great majority of ours, even the nasty ones, aren’t corrupt), but you can end up in trouble with the police just because you tick them off or because they’ve decided your actions represent a challenge to their authority (even good cops will arrest you if they think that latter the case).
