Why Police Lie Under Oath

[fasttense]

4. In our small rural town it is common knowledge that police have quotas

Since the town is so small and very little real crime occurs, the quotas are for minor things like traffic violations (tickets), minor drug arrests (someone was caught growing, NOT selling, psychedelic mushrooms in their basement), and noise complaints. In fact everyone knows there are monthly quotas and come the end of the month, you need to be especially vigilant to avoid getting a ticket. The police routinely deny they have quotas but most people don't believe them.

I believe the frequency of lying by police departments is a direct reflection of the breakdown of our society. Gone are the days where you could trust a cop to help you out. Now, you do everything you can to avoid having a cop called in. Banksters destroy an entire nations economy and get bailed out, supposedly fair and impartial judges declare to the world their political bias, laws are randomly and arbitrarily enforced and used as tools to remove political opponents. So is it any wonder that corruption is epidemic?
