Maybe not by your measures, but then again, I referenced a country, not a city.

For you peeps in Tucson, check out this site:

While ostensibly about suspicionless roadblocks involving motor vehicles, it is more about abuse of authority in general and the attitude surrounding said abuse. If you follow the original "TOPD Roadblock" thread, it is a great lesson of how the law will work against you if you try to assert your rights. The dood who put the site up is a good friend of mine--he was also one of those instrumental in getting the University of Arizona to stop handing over student info, including SSNs, to credit card companies. There's plento o' good "fight the power" info on his site, and you might try contacting him through the site if you think he might be interested in hearing about any of this.
