It seems by and large the police just do what they are told. Stand and get spit on, yelled at, and have stuff thrown at you without doing anything? Yes, xir. Arrest someone for paddleboarding totally alone? Yes, xir. Arrest someone for no mask? Yes, xir.

I'm totally against them having their lives ruined and given bogus charges like murder for bullshit that happens, but that's just me trying to be fair.
