Why, what ever happened to the civil court action one could take against the government for wrongly being arrested. Why is it up to the government to decide whether you should be compensated. Ronald Regan is rolling over in his grave. “I’m from the government and I’m here to help “.

He is correct. It is right-wing news saying one outlandish thing after another to get stoopid people to agree and educated to debate. Causing debate and division. "Left wing news" spends its time countering with overly polite reporting, not to offend right wingers.
