Double Standard

This article is about allegations of torture by the Chicago Police Department. The controversy is whether the full report should be made public.

One more piece of evidence that we have created a special class of citizens, to whom the law does not apply as it applies to the rest of society. What do you think would have happened if a non-cop had tortured somone to get a confession? Do you think that private citizen's identity would be protected?

To quote my friend Reason (again) - they're like you and me...only better.
