Would you argue that this is worse than the historical or societal norm? If not, it is a mere property of policing actions, not an indication of "totalitarianism" unless you would argue that virtually all societies are "totalitarianism," in which case your definition of "totalitarianism" is virtually worthless. I know that there are abuses of policing power but have no indication that they are, today, any worse than the American norm.
