Idle Hands

Perhaps police officers will always be hated.  They don’t do themselves any favors when they enforce laws in cases where no harm is being done.

A prime example: cops busted into a private art showing/gala in the Hamptons and asked the host to stop serving alcohol.  She refused.  Moments later, up to nine police cars and more than a dozen officers descended on the gallery and arrested [the host]. Then they carted out crates of fancy Champagne, wine and Grey Goose vodka.

Laws need to be removed and/or edited to ensure that they’re enforced only when someone is harmed. Also, police officers need to be non-confrontational and problem-solving, as opposed to their seemingly usual cavalier incitement of violence.
