Good Samaritan Backfire
February 14th, 2014
Via: Medium:
I live in a new gilded age in a golden city. But sometimes the cracks show, even here. The façade crumbles and you find yourself naked, in solitary confinement, in a wretched, feces-stained prison.
How? As a result of my efforts to help injured bicyclists by calling 911, I was, in short order: separated from my friend, violently tackled, arrested, taken to county jail, stripped and left in a solitary cell. I am writing this story because, if it could happen to me, it could happen to you, and I feel the need to do something to help prevent this brutality from propagating.

Police State Survival Guide Rule #1: Never, EVER, call 911. No matter what the nature of the emergency may be, your “rescuers” will inevitably be escorted by a petulant fellow in a police uniform, angry that his doughnut break was interrupted by some civilian’s petty problem.
