@DartmouthAlum96 "Entrapment" is leading someone to commit a crime. The crimes had already been committed by these criminals. One of the criminals arrested had murdered an elderly lady. What if that lady had been a member of your family?
@Abby3514 Abby, I can only think that someone in _your_ family has a problem with living within the law. These thieves, murderers and the other dangerous people in the video are not now going to be walking into the 7-11 as your mom stands in line to buy something and ends up in a nightmare. Or dead. "Badged criminals" "felony du jour"? against someone chosen at random, "for laughs"? Did you watch this video with the sound off?
Yes I watched it more than once. What I heard was a bunch of cops committing felony mail fraud and then laughing about it. Our forefathers feared this kind of police abuse, so they gave us civil liberties. Shall we do evil that good may result? Nay, they say. A felony is still a felony regardless of perpetrator or motive. The sad difference among felons here is the badge. You, who excuse this abuse of power, and the cops in the video ,not me or mine, have trouble living within the law.
@oxford14 Entrapment is bad enough though, as you say, not the issue here. Police committing felonies with impunity is even worse. That's a lot more frightening than simple entrapment. One felony does not justify another. The only difference is that these felons carry badges. What if the local cops just decided to commit whatever felony du jour against you and your family, just for laughs, like these badged criminals?
