Lawyers for the city, responding to a request to unseal records of police surveillance leading up to the 2004 Republican convention in New York, say that the documents should remain secret because the news media will “fixate upon and sensationalize them,” hurting the city’s ability to defend itself in lawsuits over mass arrests.
Because if we can't spy on you and operate in secret, we might be held accountable to following some rules. As we've tried to show by example, such as by demanding unlimited access to records from, say, out of state gun shops, we're "The Only Ones" who make the rules. It's you non-"Only Ones" who are supposed to follow them...
