The legal system is too tilted towards those with money, often we see that the law exists to protect capital and put down ordinary people.
I would be very opposed to any restriction of civil liberties - for example for evidence obtained by torture to be admissable, for "truth drugs" or other mental tortures to be inflicted on suspects - when this happens the state becomes the greatest criminal.
What we need, is a justice system that will go after corporate crooks, companies that pollute, mistreat employee's, damage communities.. with the same strength as the justice system currently attacks small time drug dealers or petty thieves.
