State Police caught on film making up charges for a protestor to "cover their asses".

I know this is not the right response and will be looked down upon. However I am 37 and i've only ever seen this problem get worse.

I remember in my early school lessons when we were taught about history we were especially taught about people who stood up to government. I was taught America was a land of justice for the people by the people. It doesn't seem like that is what has happened for us yet we are still being taught morals such as "doing the right thing" and not ignore injustice. My favorite is how people used to stand up to government conspiracy and injustice to demand the right thing.

Here? In 2016? Give everyone enough beer, cigarettes and sports events then you'll have a pacified population not caring about the things that really matter, like police corruption.

Yes I see lots of people talking lots of shit but i've not seen anyone marching on Washington and demanding justice. I'm not hearing of any brave humans standing up to police violence nor do I hear about communities marching on local police stations. What i'd really like to see are mobs of civillians beating and killing police who are caught doing wrong like this. I would like to see total strangers start attacking policeman and killing them when they see injustice like this. Put me on a list, watch me, call me a terrorist but our current police system is utterly fucked and needs to be gone. It's not like they enforce any real rules to protect people anyway, I can't count how many times i'm bullied on the roads or see people not using blinkers (incredible dangerous and fucking lazy). I don't even see police officers in cruisers using blinkers or driving appropriately. I mean, at what point do we wake the fuck up and stop allowing this?

Me personally, i'd like to see some real civilian violence against our government at this point. Anyone wanting to be apologetic, go get fucked and join the rest of the pacified Americans who simply gave me bothered to give a shit.

I'd be the first to march if I knew there were enough people who gave a damn to make a difference but unfortunately i'm hoping i'll simply die a quick and painless death in an unforseen car accident instead. It seems that is the best outcome for anyone in this world today.
