Rod Serling gave this speech back in 1968, just after I turned four years old. (link at the end of this post)
In the wake of Jena, The ICE Raids and the Wars in Iraq And Afghanistan as well as the questions raised by the Patriot Act
one can see that
Rod Serling could have given this speech yesterday.
How sad and how utterly tragic that is.

Suddenly we are a nation whose new battle slogan is law and order.
Last year it won countless numbers of elections.
It’s the great new American euphemism.
Law and Order.
It is now interchangeable with God, Motherhood, the Constitution and the Holy Grail.
But how empty and how suspect is this sloganry when it points up the incredible selectivity on the part of America’s citizenry –how picky and choosey they are when it comes to moral outrage.

As an admirer of Rod Serling and his work, I would have to sadly agree with you. He’d be outraged if he were alive today.
True Ms Bizarro, but he would be writing about it.
He was and is a great influence on me as a writer so I try to carry that on.
