Law Enforcement is not perfect, as it consists of human beings who are not perfect. That said, Law Enforcement is the ONLY thing protecting you and your loved ones from the robbers, murderers, pedophiles, and rapists out there. Some people wanna go all paranoid and point to aberrations as reasons for not trusting or even hating authority?...that's fine with me. I thank God every day that there are dedicated men and women willing to do this type of work that protects everything & everybody I care about.

How can your dream of a purely Marxist society ever come to pass, if the state continues to police the public?
Marxist? Shirley, you jest!

No, I protect me from much of that...that being said, are you, Jong, feeling surrounded by such mobs of evil-doers? I guess I'm glad that I don't live where YOU do, heh heh

ALWAYS so much hate in these kinds of threads... and I'm sorry, but I've always had an issue with the WAY you present yourself in these kinds of arguments, Frem, which make me want to side with Finn instead of listening to a prefectly valid viewpoint that you may have... I do not disagree with WHAT your saying most times Frem, just the WAY you say it...

The way you state your ideas seems to me to be you forcing your own point of view down peoples throats, and belitteling them and demeaning them until they either agree to your point of view or, as you say "slink off in their own trail of slime"

You, sir, should try slinking away from these boards in your own trail of slime until you can learn to play nice with the rest of the folks on these boreds... both Finn and yourself are rather inflamitory presences into these kinds of debates...

Your whole attitude is an attempt to undermine confidence in the police. You don’t want them to do their job - you want them gone - out of the equation completely.

Finn, uh, I think you're doing with Frem what you said I'm doing with you, which is cherry picking & telling HIM HIS position on stuff.

No. I’m not doing that at all. If you don’t believe me go read what Frem has to say on the idea of anarchy. The difference here is that I actually read what Frem says. So I actually know what he thinks the state is so inherently corrupt and oppressive that he believes it should be done away with completely. And this isn’t something Frem mentioned on the side one day - this has been his raison d’etre for a while now - you couldn’t miss it, unless you were trying to.

About a third of people in general are clueless or petty, and since cops are people, you should expect about the same percentage out of them.
See, if I was a cop, I'd be as quick to rat out a dickwad in my department as I would be to arrest a perp in the streets- an attitude that could get me killed, do you get that? We NEED police; I would just like to see a higher standard of recruitment & professionalism is all. But then the same goes for all government everywhere, IMO.

So what is your point? Are you trying to convince me that not all police are angels? That there are bad cops out there? Is that what you want me to believe?
