That's mostly on the Feds, not local law enforcement. Generally if it's not a cooperative investigation, the locals can't collect or process evidence, especially if the Feds tell them it's a federal case.

It seems to be something that usually pisses local law enforcement off.

    Except these jackasses subvert the law all the goddamn time when they want to. This "mah hands are tied" stuff is bs.

    Which is EVERY TIME. They're the law and they're famous for protecting their own ability to commit crimes by making sure to never attack or arrest other cops.

    Cops literally have the only working unions, only working class solidarity, and routinely use their labour power to subvert democracy and justice! MAKES ME FURIOUS

    Please do show us where widespread push back is happening from law enforcement. They have a voice and plenty of power to intervene but choose not to. Police are complicit because they benefit from ICE money. ACAB is more apparent than ever.
