This kind of behaviour needs to be filmed. It must be getting pretty cheap to do a button camera?

I imagine the recent US cases of police impropriety will stir some changes. At least it held some attention for a while.

On another note, when I'm treated badly by the system, I tend to feel a bit sorry for the person on the other end eventually. It's dehumanizing to not be able to behave in the way you find reasonable, and I doubt most cops think it's useful to randomly stop people for no reason. Same goes with the bureaucrat who won't approve your passport because you're smiling in the photo. These people would most likely not like to do as they do, but they are as powerless as their victims. When you meet them, you tell yourself not to get angry; they are trained to do as they are told, not to think. And that sucks for everyone.
