Instead of trusting and respecting the police I now distrust and fear the police.
The public needs to be vigilant in stopping the erosion of our rights and slide into a police state. Here in NSW you now lose you license automatically if over 0.05. They just made police judges and no one cares because safety! Also, a recent meta data retention law which was justified to stop terrorism is being used by the federal police against the general public including journalists who have reported against government and police corruption. I really fear for the future. We have moving closer to dystopia every day.

Everyone has their own experiences with the police, and I'm not discounting yours one bit, but mine have been extremely positive. Including getting mugged as a teenager and the cops being their within 30 seconds, seeing a cop get smacked across the face with a skateboard, and him and his peers still arrested the guy without using too much force.
The laws that they're being allowed to operate within are definitely terrifying though, I'm 100% with you there
