Default US-glider guiders only: Article in last Soaring

Did anybody else read the article in the October issue of Soaring 'My last dog-fight'? I must have missed the memo but it seems like the US-law enforcement agencies have declared open season on the GA or more specifically glider guiders. First the totally unwarranted arrest in SC and now this incident in FL! In both cases, the involved officers get away without any consequences, well protected by the system. Where are the expressions of outrage or are we cool with that sort of behavior?
Does anyone have a positive experience with 'The Law' in connection with soaring, i.e. being assisted after an off-field landing, etc. he/she can report to off-set these shameful reports?
