It’s always going to problem when a person is exercising their constitutional right and the police come in and try and make an example of them.

and only THEN will the charges be dropped. And if the citizen prevails in a civil suit...
which is never a guarantee the only person held to account is the long suffering taxpayer who foots the bill for the blood money to pay off the victims of state sanctioned criminality.
