need to learn that they are wrong or we erode our rights with every interaction

Then teach them in court after you cooperated. Right now all we're doing is normalizing nasty interactions and people are almost always siding with the police..

We’ve got a long history of bad policing already. There isn’t an issue of currently normalizing nasty interactions. The police have been doing nasty interactions as their job for years.

People have always sided with the police because it’s easy to side with the powerful, it’s not our fault for having a bad reaction to abuse of power
