Mike, Don't worry so much about "condition white". A lot of people are always wanting to make the good guy out to be wrong some way, so that they can reassure themselves that "it could never happen to them".

I really want to thank you for the way you handled the situation and the response you made afterward. We need more people like you who are willing to stand up for their rights. Ideally, we would have teams of volunteers (some with guns, some with video cameras), making citizen "sting" operations with the object of stopping this type of violent abuse by sworn police officers.

Those officers violated their oath of office, and should be fired, IMHO. At the minimum, you should get legal fees and some valuta to teach them a valuable lesson.

Thanks again for the good work, don't dwell on the mildly negative aspects, you have every right to be both offended by the police conduct, and proud of your own.

Thanks for your comments, MarkTwain.

The latest news is that I spoke with the Governor of New Hampshire, Craig Benson, on Thursday May 27, and his reaction to my tale of woe was "they're still doing that?!?" and having his aide jot down a note for the attorney general.

I also spoke with a reporter for the Nashua Telegraph while I was there, but haven't heard anything back from him yet.

Hopefully this will help brighten the spotlight on this situation and get the PD to respond.
