Once, I was cuffed and the police report stated at that time I was not under arrest, I was being detained and placed in handcuffs for my protection!

I hate that "for your own protection" excuse,,,
And that's all it really is,,,
A lame excuse.
It's so the officer can feel safer or establish easy control of a situation,,,
The only one I need protection from is the man with the handcuffs.
LE in general is slowly assuming authority that is not legislated to them,,,
I truly want Aurora (I lived there in the 70's) to suffer some financial damage here,,,
And if possible I would like to see the FBI come in and levy some charges for civil rights violations under color of authority.
But their argument will be that "it worked",,,
Thereby justifying a negative means with a positive outcome.
