Why does every stupid police action amount to a conspiracy? When Houston cops arrested everyone in that Kmart parking lot last year, was that also a conspiracy? Cops and their superiors are human, and therefore, prone to error, just like the rest of us.

"Why does every stupid police action amount to a conspiracy?"

They don't always. Only the ones in which the stupidity (and worse) are covered up, such as by burning down houses, bulldozing the scene, and hushing up the truth.

Why does every stupid police action amount to a conspiracy?

It doesn't. Take for example the rancher who was shooting at the firefighters helicopter. The rancher was clearly wrong. But now look at what happened at Ruby Ridge, Klamath Falls, Ranch Rescue, Lubbock, Waco, ect...

When Houston cops arrested everyone in that Kmart parking lot last year, was that also a conspiracy?

No. But it was abuse of police power. Several people have lost their jobs over that one and the lawsuites are still running.

Cops and their superiors are human, and therefore, prone to error, just like the rest of us.

Now you are in for it. The Flying Monkeys will be around shortly for you daring to suggest that Law Enforcement officials would be anything other than completely trustworthy and ethical in the pursuit of their jobs.
