Believe it or not, there *are* potential distinctions between "does not trust protesters and gives police the benefit of the doubt when dealing with the historically hysterically irrational" and "Loves the stasi". Hal goes too far, in my opinion, to defend the police and assumes they are always both honest and correct until proven otherwise. I believe this is a very bad assumption. You, on the other hand, assume that all cops are evil, which is an EQUALLY bad assumption.
The cops are clearly in the wrong, this time. That doesn't mean they're always wrong.
