Hell, the Chicago PD had a blacksite modeled after CIA blacksites, called Homan Square. More than 7,000 people were detained there, and only 68 of them were ever allowed access to an attorney.
Yep. American police are on par with USSR, East Germany, and China. We just think we're better because our flags are red white and blue, not red and gold.
