Oops, looks like something inspired another tangent. I'm going to submit it anyway. Indulge.

This sort of thing is commonplace, not by any means an exception.

In certain "task force" teams, such as narcotics, all kinds of trickery and manipulation is applied. You can forget about "fair play"- underhanded tactics are considered part of the job and legal protection for citizens is just a petty nuisance to the war pig.

The police department will take action only to the extent that it pacifies public outcry. When the pressure subsides, it's business as usual.

If you ever end up the subject of a complaint, suspicion or just being at the wrong place at the wrong time- you are dealing with people who are fighting a war brought on by propaganda and ignorant public opinion that is easily swayed. (If you actually take time to look deeply into related matters- then you are wise. Most people are not and everyone is just too busy anyway- right?)The forces behind the illusion are government agencies and the massive money machines known as industry. Food and drug being at or near the center of it all.

You cannot fight a war with a substance- War is an assault on people and more often than not, nobody wants to believe in what is hard to accept, or cares until it affects themselves or someone they genuinely care about .
