I think its do with how much power authority have and how they can manipulate the public in oder to saving them self. Reference to the song, "He was public enemy number one", "And the police report said
We had no choice left
We did what we were forced to do".
The authorities (police) have the power to take someones life, without the voice of anyone else.
"Well he fit the profile
There'll be no trial
There is nothing left to say
So what if he's innocent"
The authorities did not care what had to be said, they just matched a person to the suspect and that was all that needed to be done, according to them, so i also feel the song is saying what has happened to peoples rights ? eg, the rights to have your say, the rights to a fair trial.
