In my opinion, this typifies a worrisome tendency to mindless and severe
over-reaction by USA authorities to a range of situations, coupled with a
refusal to deal with gross injustices and illegal actions such as the bleaching
of the elector rolls in Florida, and the forceful removal of legitimate non-
white residents from their homes and seizing of their homes in new Orleans
( as reported by investigating journalist Greg Palast). I'm glad I don't have
to
cope with these, and have every intention to avoid being in such situations.
Not that NZ is squeaky-clean either; some NZ police are far too ready to use
firearms in situations that didn't need them; leading recently to a new
phenomenon called "death by police" whereby people wanting to commit
suicide provoke police into shooting them dead.
