Grasping for Dignity in the Era of the American Police State

[presence]

During a routine traffic stop, Leila Tarantino was allegedly subjected to two roadside strip searches in plain view of passing traffic, while her two children—ages 1 and 4—waited inside her car. During the second strip search, presumably in an effort to ferret out drugs, a female officer “forcibly removed” a tampon from Tarantino. No contraband or anything illegal was found.


A North Carolina public school allegedly strip-searched a 10-year-old boy in search of a $20 bill lost by another student, despite the fact that the boy, J.C., twice told school officials he did not have the missing money. The assistant principal reportedly ordered the fifth grader to disrobe down to his underwear and subjected him to an aggressive strip-search that included rimming the edge of his underwear. The missing money was later found in the school cafeteria.
Suspecting that Georgia Tech alum Mary Clayton might have been attempting to smuggle a Chik-Fil-A sandwich into the football stadium, a Georgia Tech police officer allegedly subjected the season ticket-holder to a strip search that included a close examination of her underwear and bra. No contraband chicken was found.

The only way this kind of abuse will stop, is going to be when cops are gunned down for doing shit like this.

Until then, there are no repercussions to them for these types of abuses. It's been plainly clear for quite some time that there aren't enough good cops to keep these bad cops in check. Probably the only thing that'll keep their asses in line is fear for their lives.

Indeed. Such is the nature of the State and all its tools of oppression and enforcement. It is a cancer upon society that will metastasize until it is violently destroyed.
