Police State Study Ranks US As 6th Worst In The World and New Zealand is number 20

Yey, we made it into the top 20 of most monitored police states of the world. That, together with Tasers for all frontline police personnel should make us all feel frightfully safe, eh?

Orange alert for New Zealand as policestate status goes up

A country of no more than 4.3 million people on a surface 6 times the size of Holland which houses more than 17 million people monitored almost as stringently. Hell, in Ragtown alone there are more than 8 camera’s in the maindrag alone and that street is only 0.5 of a km long
