I mean...yes. The US police department has stacked the cards in their favor, and as with every organization that believes they can act with impunity, abuse all of their power to the maximum extent they can. When they want to rob you, they call it a fancy police word to make it seem legitimate. When they wrongfully kill you, they call it Qualified Immunity, which makes them exempt from punishment.

It's organized crime at the absolute highest level. Police behave similarly to mobsters in Scorsese films.
