There was no more of straight laced, by the book, follow the rules guy than I was raised to be. My father feared no man but he was visibly afraid of the State. If you guys have ever heard/read about the Tonton Macoute in Haiti, you know that they make the worst cops in America look like Officer Friendly.
So anyway, I was raised to follow the law, keep nose clean,etc.
When cops or the legal system turns tables on you and treat you like a criminal or threaten your life/freedom it kind of shakes the foundation of what you believe.
