Mace in the Face: Is the US a Police State?

Most Americans will go to sleep tonight after being totally occupied with their day to day life, to busy to reflect upon the subtle changes that are happening all around them.

Others are recovering from assaults by police who are paid by their tax dollars to protect them.

Russia released a study a few months back stating that America is more of a fascist police state than Germany was during the Hitler years.

How did we get here? How did public apathy get so high and governmental ethics so low? How is it that we watch videotape of police pepper-spraying women and these abusers of the badge are allowed to keep their job?

What can we do to moderate the divide in public perception, enough that we can effect change in the normative way in which we expect our supposed authority figures to treat out fellow man?
