Yeah, mine too, but if I had to I think I could manage it.

Cases like that form a new baseline for what's considered an acceptable use of 'law enforcement', and every time it goes unremarked or even applauded the political atmosphere shifts ever so slightly. I'm not even sure if these people have an end goal in view beyond seeing how far they can push it, but that's a view that's caused quite enough damage already.
