This petition discusses the seriousness of false arrests.<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" />
Everyday people who are arrested, about 75% of those people have been falsely arrested and are usually pressured by the police to confess to a crime they did not commit. Take for example the occupy Portland protesters. They were peacefully protesting when they were beaten down by the police and arrested for a false crime that they did not commit. The reason you ask? The police are just getting bored and are trying to find an y reason they can to arrest people.

The police think they can act with total impunity while ruining lives for their own sick entertainment. I am getting messages from people who have been through this nightmare and it is clear the department relies on fear to silence the truth.

The police think they can keep locking people up for sport while we stay silent. This surge in support proves the public is finally waking up to their corrupt tactics.

Ridiculous how much power they have. Seems like they can just grab whoever they want these days and make up a story later. Something has to change.
I was there that day. Totally peaceful and we were just standing around. I watched them tackle people for no reason at all. DISGUSTING.

police need to be held accountable for this stuff. sick of reading about innocent people getting locked up because some cop is having a bad day.
