In the grand scheme of ethics… Probably immediately. There’s nothing about the police or the legal system that entitles them to moral superiority. They’re just richer and have more time on their hands. Keep in mind the legal system is the same legal system that gave us citizens united, two calamitous wars in West Asia, and golden parachutes for rich criminals. They’re just a system of exploitation that makes sure their favored corporations get to exploit everything and everyone while we’re all too poor and hungry to fight back because they’ve made it sink or swim for us

I agree. Legal and ethical are not the same. Legal does not imply just.
