Haven't watched much news lately? Those in power will abuse their power. Thus we must limit their ability to do such.

Some people have never had bad law enforcement experiences. I know someone whose brother was shot to death in a traffic stop. I know a woman who was stalked by a deputy. And I know of an entire city neighborhood that got tear gassed because the PD drove protestors into a residential area. In the early evening.

Cops are people too, and sometimes people are assholes. Really, really big assholes. This is why we have rules instead of a police state. Well, had.
