< http://online.wsj.com/article....Stories >Article about how police are starting to see the public as the enemy. On a side note, I was driving a bit today and had this thought: How likely would it be to get shot and killed if you were driving 35 in a 40, and refused to pull over if a cop signaled you to? Just keep going slow and steady, OJ style, avoid a few spike strips and road blocks, get some helicopters in the air, possibly a drone if you are within 200 miles of the border and you get on Homeland Security's radar... if you aren't straight-up killed as a terrorist, how many millions pf dollars would the local, state, and federal government spend to get you because you were driving 35 in a 40, and didn't feel like stopping for the cop?

Nice to see the WSJ has caught up to last decade.

I've been seeing cops as the enemy for awhile now. I suppose this is only fair. Course, the law is way lopsided in their favour.
