I hear what you are saying, i get it but 1/2 the world are FTP state right now and the other half is very PRO police right now. I see this is good barging tool for prosecutors. I do like that. Its kind of scary some days to wear a badge right now.

But your right, sometimes a well meant action is very badly abused.
