The cognitive dissonance and pressure of group dynamics make it almost a certainty.&lt;p&gt;There is huge power in law enforcement and prosecutorial discretion. Yes, some parts of the job have to be strict for safety purposes. There are many other parts that don&amp;#x27;t.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;ve had prosecutors and police know that our rights were violated as part of a citation. They did not care. Cop lied multiple times in court and was caught. IAD merely gave them a warning. The LT of the troop made a bunch of BS excuses - either he&amp;#x27;s actually that stupid or he&amp;#x27;s lying too. Filed a complaint about an incompetent magistrate whow also violated due process rights - judicial board doesn&amp;#x27;t care. Prosecutor instructed the court not to talk to us which prevented us from securing remote accommodations for our witness - the Bar didn&amp;#x27;t care. Civil rights lawyer said our rights were violated, but unless there was substantial monetary damages, the system doesn&amp;#x27;t care and would likely see it as frivolous.&lt;p&gt;Nobody cares. Nobody protects your rights. If nobody can enforce your rights, do you even have them at all? All the trooper&amp;#x2F;prosecutor&amp;#x2F;magistrate&amp;#x2F;judge had to do, was drop&amp;#x2F;throw out the case. They had the discretion, and even the responsibility, to do that. Their mentality was the problem. We were guilty in their mind because if we were not, that would make them participants in a broken and unjust system.</text><parent_chain><item><author>sandworm101</author><text>&amp;gt;&amp;gt; A meatgrinder job is a job that pays more not because there are fewer people who can do it, but because there are fewer people that will.

Bless his soul, he&amp;#x27;s a very kind man. But it&amp;#x27;s incredibly taxing. Not just the treatments but there are many cases where children die and there&amp;#x27;s nothing you can do about it. And it doesn&amp;#x27;t stop, even when he&amp;#x27;s on vacation, he has patient&amp;#x27;s families calling&amp;#x2F;texting him.&lt;p&gt;I&amp;#x27;ve been at dinner where someone will walk over and say something like &amp;quot;you saved my brother&amp;#x2F;daughter&amp;#x2F;sister&amp;#x2F;son&amp;#x27;s life.&amp;quot; Or sometimes my wife and I will meet someone who will recognize she&amp;#x27;s his daughter and day the same. Hopefully that makes it worth it.</text><parent_chain><item><author>sandworm101</author><text>&amp;gt;&amp;gt; A meatgrinder job is a job that pays more not because there are fewer people who can do it, but because there are fewer people that will.
