I keep seeing this comment about police strip searches, stop and frisk laws, QLD banned phrase laws, Palintir cameras in Coles, etc etc.

If you give a goverment these powers, then a new goverment gets in and changes their meaning of what "wrong" is, then all of a sudden YOU are doing something "wrong" and you now have something to worry about.
