Basically grants to incentive police to institute policies that will encourage them to further tread on our rights and liberties
This can be combatted,
We need a popular public campaign informing the public how to advocate for the rights within every police interaction
To never consent to a search
To never speak unnecessarily - "I'm not going to answer any questions that I'm not required to", "am I being detained or am I free to go"
If you do that much of what happens on the street will be thrown away in court
If you refuse to do that, for whatever Stockholm syndrome reason, then you give your lawyer nothing to work with - you willingly gave up consent
What he is saying he encourages corrupt policing
The only way this can be righteous is if we take all trivial laws off of the books. In a country where 50 percent of arrests and incarcerations are for non-violent drug related crimes, this means ending the war on drugs
This is the first step to stopping predatory policing and it can be packaged as a way of keeping cops out of harm's way while also keeping the population free from the dangers of unregulated drug markets, which only serve as economic protectionism for violent cartels and the criminal element. The the war on drugs of the failed policy that hurts more than it helps, inflates crime rates domestically and the exportation of these policies enables violence cartels to profit. The war on drugs is economic protectionism for cartels
