On “The Five” – the wildly popular and fairly new show on Fox News – liberal commentator Bob Beckel looked into the camera and said to Rev. Al Sharpton, “say something, say anything man!” Beckel was referring to the video footage above, which is of the three black 15-year-old teens who viciously beat a younger 6th grader who was white.

Many municipalities set up checkpoints for law enforcement to cut down on drunk driving over the 4th of July holiday, and in this video one such DUI checkpoint is depicted. I have been hard on instances of overcriminalization by the federal government, but the truth is that state authorities have a greater impact on our day-today lives. As CATO has done, I have tried to keep an eye out for videos such as this one, in which police are caught behaving in questionable manners.

Every day, law enforcement at the behest of big government excessively targets and prosecutes Americans of all race, class and creed. In modern America, this activity goes far beyond groups targeted by the IRS who are otherwise upstanding citizens. When government creates laws designed to compel citizens to act in according to that which the state has deemed to be “right” behavior, it is known as overcriminalization.
