From boingboing.net: "A CBS undercover reporting team went into 38 police
stations in Miami-Dade and Broward Counties in Florida, asking for a set of forms they could use to complain about inappropriate police behavior. In all but three of the stations, the police refused to give them forms. Some of the cops threatened them (on hidden camera, no less) -- one of them even touched his gun." As a law student (and an American), this bothers me a great deak.
