Police who raided a marijuana store, destroying security cameras and the DVR, harassing the store's customers, consuming edible marijuana products, and playing darts, were caught on camera. The cops claim that said recording is illegal because the cops had an expectation of privacy after destroying all of the security cameras.

I wish I could make up this stuff.

    Just burn them at the stake. Lynch them. Set an example. No one is above the law. And, that goes for the judge who is to rule on the matter.

    When police refuse to do their jobs, vigilantism becomes inevitable. The citizens delegate justice to the legal system to ensure its fair and impartial, however if the legal system consistently fails for years on end to do fulfill its purpose, the citizens' hands are forced, leaving them no choice but to rescind their delegation of power and take matters into their own hands.
