You don't need to go south of the border. You can get pulled over for no reason in the US and have drugs planted on you by a cop simply having a bad day. I'm not interpreting least corrupt as no corruption. I think least corrupt is still a ridiculous statement.

  Spend some time in the less fortunate areas of your city. You'll learn very quickly how things work when it comes to the police.

    Or just anywhere in Northern Idaho. Especially roads that connect to Oregon.

      We are in a thread that began with, "Go south of the border to Mexico and you can experience getting pulled over for no reason by a cop looking for a payout". Are you saying that the cops in Northern Idaho are out for bribes?

        Let's review: > You can get pulled over for no reason in the US and have drugs planted on you by a cop simply having a bad day. The next reply in this thread: > lol you watch too much tv. No I'm not asserting they are "asking". They won't bother to ask. They'll either plant something and take your stuff that way, or "smell drugs" and seize your assets under "civil forfeiture".

        No they won’t. Planting evidence is so uncommon it’s hilarious you even make such an absurd claim.

        Of course not. The police would definitely do no such thing: https://www.kristv.com/news/local-news/in-your-neighborhood/corpus-christi/charged-former-ccisd-police-officer-accused-of-planting-evidence https://www.kristv.com/news/local-news/in-your-neighborhood/... And there definitely aren't any departments funding themselves by seizing assets from people never even accused of a crime https://www.nlg-npap.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Civil-Asset-Forfeiture-Sheet-for-Website.pdf https://www.nlg-npap.org/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Civil-As...

  This is recorded. There is at least one famous one on YouTube.

    In Florida and maybe other states, if anyone requests body cam video on a case, the police usually have to provide it, so, of course there is going to be at least one video on Youtube of cops behaving badly, but that does not say anything informative about the rate of bad cop behavior in the US.
