I have honestly never heard of a successful lawsuit against a police union. I understand the ‘always try’ idea, but lawsuits cost money and there’s the concept of throwing good money after bad. Maybe using that money to fight for reforms in the political arena would be a better idea?
Fighting back against constitutional violations is the epitome of advancing reform in a political arena in which those rights are being constantly eroded.
Fighting for the legitimacy of essential social and personal rights guaranteed to you by the constitution of your country is in no way a waste of resources.

But successful lawsuits don’t make legal rulings on constitutional violations.
