To the surprise of absolutely no one, you give the police more laws to harass people over and they will harass minorities at a higher rate. This is in Australia, but you know if we had strict rules here it would disproportionately target minorities as well.


Also, once you give these people this power, they aren't going to to take it away once the pandemic ends.

I don't know what "von Dutch" means these days, but in the '60s and '70s, having your vehicle pinstriped by von Dutch here in the US was a thing.
