If law enforcement officers go beyond the law, this is not democracy. You know the difference, but my point is that in some countries the law is not right - I don't blame the law enforcement officers (as long as they only enforce the law), but the law makers. I have issues to take up with those - qand I do it the democratic way. I don't agree with many of the things happening, but I do believe that the democratic way is the only legitimate way, at least in democratic countries (in one of which I am lucky to live). > Old age being another ;) Don't we have something in common.
