I would really love to see some laws that allow us to defend ourselves against police. If they decide to just beat my ass, they can and I can't defend myself. WTF!?

My understanding of the current state of things is that in some jurisdictions it's simultaneously legal for armed police to violently enter your home without identifying themselves and for you to defend your home by firing a weapon at them.
Basically, we have legalized gunfights, as long as the police have a warrant. In almost all of these cases the police will "win" and therefor we essentially we have legalized murder where the police at least know they're about to get into a firefight whereas the suspect likely does not.
Kenneth Walker, Breonna Taylor's boyfriend was cleared of charges of shooting back at police. Had it not been as publicized he would probably be in jail though. It's possible but it's an uphill struggle, the system will defend itself any way possible.
