Can you show me how specifically you fight it in court when the person abusing you is a federal officer? Bivens is basically dead.

Well, you can see the alternative. Get shot in the street and get a lot of twitter posts.

If the claim is that you can fight it in court then I want to know how you'd do that. Because from where I sit there are mountains of procedural barriers to actually doing this. A lot of people assume that you can just get some remedy in court, but this is often not true.

When an ICE agent shot and killed a kid their Bivens claim was still denied.

"Just go to court to solve it is not serious.
