The cruelty was always the point, but they used to try to hide it.

Good thing my police doesn't look like this.

They look like hoodlums who walked through a prepper bazaar.

This sounds like something that would cause the opposite of compliance. If you restraining me hurts more then I have every incentive to get out of the restraint.

It's more of a torture device to be applied to fully restrained person, which means enforcers will probably love it because they are doing it already, often beating, tazing and in some cases even shooting fully restrained person.

If you are a non-American thinking about visiting, please don't visit, for your own safety.

Yes, and if you are doing business with American companies, look for alternatives. The people should re-realize the power of a general boycott.

This belongs in a dystopian cyberpunk RPG, not reality.

Cyberpunk of the 80's is the reality of the past couple decades, minus the flying cars and other decorations.

We're in a dystopian cyberpunk RPG with crocodile concentration camps, AI based genocide and climate collapse.
