Yeah, that's the aspect these old-timers forget. The LEFT only cares about out-of-control cops when there's a racial angle. Otherwise, they cheer the police state! They're all for the militarization. The unionization. (What was the Clinton cop-hiring program?) During the Bundy face-off they were itching for a conflagration.
The idea that the Left is anti-LE is 100% backwards and based on attitudes from the '60s.

So true, and I'd add that the idea that LE is pro conservative is also a left over from another time. So sad that so many Freepers are asleep at the switch on this. Arrogant, spiteful and ignorant Freepers ..these .
I'd also add that the racial issue is only one of many many layers to this story. Rand Paul, for example, was right about the militarization of the cops. He was dead wrong and a pathetic panderer when talking race on this.
