Here is an example of what can happen when people have power that is unchecked. This video is disturbing to watch.

For those out there who talk about the need for more power and less oversight of our law enforcement agencies and intelligence communities - here is but a small example of what can happen when power is unchecked.

Again - it's disturbing but people need to see this. I can only imagine what happens in those secret prisons, in Gitmo or in cells across the country where video tapes are not rolling.
Remember as you watch this - the person who is being accosted by the police was the VICTIM of a crime. Police responded to it and her only offense is that she turned over her (dead) sister's drivers license that she keeps as a memento.
Tell your reactionary friends to watch this - make sure they know that there is a reason we have those constitutional rights - and this is (again) a small example of what happens when someone in power decides the rules don't apply to them.
I don't know the people in the video but I feel it's imperative that as many people as possible see this.
