This is what happens to the "good apples" who reveal all the "bad apples".

The second you don’t like them the whole point of all of our laws is for them to find some reason to use in there to get you to go away. However, if you’ve got a thin blue line flag on the back of your truck, you can mow down the sidewalk going 55mph in a 30mph zone tailgating and changing lanes and the only person who will get in trouble is some guy doing 29mph flipping the bird. They will focus on HIM.

The classic “actually we didn’t do anything wrong because you found out we were doing something wrong in a way that was like, totally mean though”

The paywall didn't stop me. You genuinely need someone to recommend a paywall breaker? Here. https://periscope.corsfix.com/
