There is widespread use of non judicial punishments by police officers. Police regularly punch, kick, or otherwise cause pain on people with no repercussions or reporting. People engaged in constitutionally protected activities are often subjected to intimidation and brutality with no recourse. Oddly Americans widely believe the myth that they are free. It’s weird. You aren’t free if you can’t safely exercise your rights to police officers.
People can be arrested solely for resisting arrest. Police routinely yell “stop resisting” in order to justify use of force. Police rarely arrest other police even for clearly criminal acts like domestic violence. There is a serious policing problem in the U.S.
