I'm pretty willing to bet that those same people would have advised co-operation with the Nazi's in their day also.
"If you do not comply vit our illegal orders, ve vill use vatever means zat ve must in order to force you to comply! You vill co-operate or it vill go hard vit you..."

Spot on - YEA let's all just COMPLY no matter that they had no probable cause to stop and search her trunk. COMPLY while Border Patrol agents (it wasn't at the border) detain her and tell her she can just walk down the road but they are keeping her car??? What the fuck is WRONG with you people I APPLAUD this woman and can only wish that I would have the same gumption in a situation like that. This woman is a hero during this time of RAMPANT police abuse of power.
I hope she sues them and wins big.
