A week ago, I sued Victoria Police (with your help at http://StandWithAvi.com) for violently ARRESTING me for doing my job. So this weekend, I went back to report from the protests, but you just won’t believe how police treated me this time.
WATCH & SHARE far and wide.

They wouldn't treat channel 7 or nine like that.
No, they were deliberately stalling him. To those that haven't had dealings with police in the past in conjunction with activism - they are ordered to do things like this and do their best to follow these orders - regardless of how intelligent their questions or methods of stalling are to the outsider.
I remember once as part of Occupy Sydney when it was full swing for that eight days of fame they were walking around the border of our camp as close as they could late at night and looking in at us constantly - it felt like an intimidation tactic - when I asked the police lady why she was doing this, she said quite frankly - 'These are my orders'.
This and many other snakey tactics and witnessing cases thrown out of court based on spurious charges fabricated by the police have left me with no surprise as to what they are capable of.
It is not that the people behind the uniform are to blame (though really they are for even putting on a uniform) - it is that once they have put on the uniform they can be ordered to do almost anything and are not being paid to be a brain or to question authority. It is their job to follow orders. Also when they are questioned and made to report on activities - even if some happy go lucky hippy decided to try and get the police 'on side' and sweet talk them (something most of us greatly discouraged) - these conversations come out in their reports and are used as intelligence (regardless of how 'nice' the police person was).
There's a simple maxim you all should follow - you can't trust the police. You can trust them to be what they are.
They are 'just doing their job' and they really are 'just people too' but its what they become when they allow their bodies and their minds to be used as a tool for enforcing the control of the state.
If they take off their uniform and relate to the people and stop answering to their superintendents - they can indeed be free again. Until then, they are 'just following orders' and will not ask questions why the law is a certain way, or why they are ordered to arrest you at a protest even though you've done nothing wrong and have a constitutional right to be there - they just do it - no matter now 'nice' a person they may be.
They do have a function in country towns and in general for keeping the peace - this is their civic duty: a keeper of the peace
Unfortunately they are also the right arm of the state to keep all the people inline, following every knee jerk idea a corrupt government decides to make as statute law - unlawful laws which are then enforced by this mob: the police.
Anything can be made legal or illegal. There is no true morality in 'legal' or 'illegal'. Legal and illegal are fabrications which are loosely based on moral principle. For if they weren't, people would have no qualm in breaking these 'laws'.
For the police to stand with the people, it has to happen as one - the entire department of the police for a region has to stand and together for it to work.
An individual police 'stander' is quickly deposed of power and pushed away in the gutter.
