Man, the cops can't decide whether their top priority is to kick in your door without a warrant and shoot you for drugs you don't have or to arrest you for dancing at the Jefferson memorial.

This sounds like one of those obscure and unenforceable laws that you hear collected into lists on joke sites, eg. not letting your maidservant ride a horse down a country road after 3AM during a vernal equinox.

Not me, I can't stand all authoritarian politicians on both sides of the aisle.

All laws are just because they are put in place by our benevolent government.

That aside, do you respect the law?

Yep just like all the authoritarian of the past would say. Except they spoke German or Russian.

Laws against force, fraud or coercion yes, other than that I have ZERO respect for laws created by authoritarian thugs. My family in Russia were killed by such thinking, I fight against it at every turn.

Yes, but Sgt. Friday only wants the facts...never mind that we don't exactly have a serious problem with people dancing in memorials. Or that the idea that it's a nonsensical law that beggars the question of whether all 6 or 8 of those "dancers" (they really were dancing badly) had their First Amendment rights violated. At the least, the officers used undue force in restraining the three or four who were arrested. It's such a non-issue, yet a few people got their panties in a bunch over it.
