Democracy?

A neighbor called the police on a man claiming he married a woman under the age of 18. I don't know her actual age, but it's close to 18. The police came, threw him on the floor, zip tied his hands and feet, and kicked him in the ribs when he asked to know why they were doing what they were doing.

This happened in Israel of course. I know the guy.

Part of democracy is professional police conduct. The police are not employed to dish out punishment, only to prevent crimes or to investigate them. It's the job of the courts to judge guilt and issue punishment if appropriate.

Now American police are quite harsh when a person resists arrest, but throwing a man to the floor and hog tying him over something like this? You are not likely to know a person this happens to, not in the USA. But in Israel, well, I do.
