“Yes but before qualified immunity before 1960 officers did not have to be worried about the lawsuits that they now face.”

Nope, I think the first civil suit for rights violation was 1820. It was in the article I provided which is a very thorough examination of the history of the issue.

QI has to go. It isn’t just cops it protects, but bureaucrats from all the alphabet soup agencies currently eating out the substance of our freedom.
