It is a win

In a small win for gun owners, a New York court has ruled that owning an out of state gun permit is not enough “cause” for a New York cop to search a vehicle.
Which is as it should be.  However, this part really pisses me off:
During my traffic stop, I videoed the interactions with the officer. When the officer searched the vehicle, he deleted the video. (We were, however, able to recover fragments with the help of Northeastern Cyber Data Recovery). Upon the DA’s office finding out we had recovered the video they ceased to deny that the officer had a  DashCam video and it suddenly became available.
The cop illegally deleted the video, and the prosecutor lied under oath.  Chances of them being punished for these crimes: just about zero.

What SHOULD happen:
Cop loses badge.
Prosecutor loses law license and job.
Because until both clowns and their type start getting real punishment, they'll just keep doing these things.

I disagree.

Arrests for tampering with evidence (they'd arrest you for deleting your own video. Payback's a bi...)

Arrest for witness tampering.

Arrest for illegal prosecution.

Arrest, arrest, arrest.

Not just lose their jobs. Arrest them. Lock them up.

Pour encourager les autres.

I support executions for any abuse of power or corruption by any public official more than convicted murderers. In my book, both this police officer and the DA need to be put up against the wall.

What does this, and the ongoing drip-drip-drip of such stories - let alone the whole Clinton / FBI thing - undermines belief in The System as a whole. And IMHO, all part of the plan.

Do you remember the classic scene from DEVIL'S ADVOCATE where Al Pacino talks about clogging up the entire system with acquittal after acquittal until G-d himself chokes on it?

Whether deliberate or not at this level, what's happening is that the average Jane and Joe can plainly see the corruption... and loses faith. Which I predicted.

Something I've wondered about the last few years:
Do these idiots not realize the damage they're doing to this society by destroying trust this way, or do they just not care?
