When an appellate court rules that a law passes constitutional muster and should be enforced, the street cop is supposed to override them and make his own law? That just shifts the tyranny down to the individual level.
So the ultimate form of law is the individual officer because they must follow only their own ethics, which hopefully align with yours because if they don't you are fucked. Not a great look.

Same shit nazis said.
Exactly. Just following orders. If you can read and have a conscience you are responsible for your actions.
