There already is one in America. We could start with the NSA and then move to the rest of the “alphabet soup” of government law enforcement.After all, the US has per capita one of the highest incarceration rates on the planet. I think that is a good marker of a police state.
Ahab, yes, and if you knocked one out, you were DQ’d. The new ‘benders’ with armor plated forearms have made times faster. (And occasionally increase business for dentists!)
As to those “sexual orientation police”, Salt Lake wasn’t exactly a “freedom zone” with the locals for that same segment of the populace. But figure skating might be more a target than slalom.
Ya know, I find it hard to take Snowden seriously when he flees first to China (for it’s “history of human rights support”; seriously?) and then to Russia.

Misread slalom as shalom and thought it was about Israel.
