I was watching Cops or some show like it and remarked to my wife at the treatment they gave a "john" who was stung soliciting prostitution.

They surrounded his car (no problem so far), then violently pulled him out of the car and three cops piled on him knee first. I'm not sure of the wisdom of using violent methods to arrest someone who completely followed directions and gave no resistance while committing a non-violent crime.

The wisdom is in getting the populace to fear the police. Only then will there be true liberty.
