...among the more serious signs that the United States too can vote Fascism into power, the police forces of our country have become mythologized as heroes who will protect us....so give them good pay and better tools...for our security.

Last night the news reported a case of a man being arrested for assault on police officers...or police heroes, if you prefer. It seems a man was stopped for being a bit tipsy and in the course of events he farted at the cops...they promptly arrested him for assault on a hero...in the complaint the heroes said that the "gas" was obnoxious and that the man "wafted it towards them with his hand".

Luckily, for now, the D.A. was sensible enough to drop the charges because a trial on such charges would really stink. But...if showing "disrespect" for police officers ever gets written into law....to allow our police to better protect us...we might well see such frivolous charges stand up just because they technically fit under "disrespect for heroes".
