Null, you might need to add Jabba to your Alaska Wolf pings.

No one is above the law... including your ‘buddies’ who like to flaunt their position as LE.

The very first comment to my comment was this: "When you start to pick and choose which laws you want to enforce, you’re a banana republic."

To me, this the sames as "I vas just following orderz." The laws are insane. Following law to the letter is first impossible, second it's also insane and third its inhumane.

Have you people followed the 'zero tolerance' insanity at schools? Boys get disciplined for drawing pictures of guns, biting toaster strudels into the shape of guns and talking about gun. A woman posted a picture about of her concealed carry license, the school where here daughter attends complained, the police gave her a criminal trespass warning and interrogated her about the CCW license and the fact she's in the military. I also think, it's due in part to her black skin color. Gun control started out at Black and Immigrant control. There's no law in this other than the insanity of 'zero tolerance'.

This of course is lawlessness created from out of control government.

The idea that I'm LE or even know any LEO's is simply wrong. I don't. I've been concerned about out of control police since living in the LA area in the 80's with the militarization of cops and the sheriff's visible even back then. Rodney King was just the match that set off the pile of tinder built up by abusive LAPD for years.

So, are the schools right to enforce "zero tolerance" as they see fit? Can't you see the insanity and inhumanity?

As a conservative libertarian, I see the vital necessity to reduce the size and scope of government at all levels. You leave large areas of unwritten law to the social compact and rely on the people and common sense to fill in the blanks, as in this incident. You don't handcuff fellow LEO's unless you have good reason to from an imminent threat.

In my life, I've found women more likely to enforce all rules, just look at classrooms and public schools. Males tend to have their groups with more informal unwritten laws. So, having women enforce rules blindly is part and parcel of the continuing war on masculinity. Obviously, big government much prefers women, who are going to be compliant to (ironically) Big Brother.

Any questions?

I assume you agree with me. Where am I going wrong here? I can understand that lawless government is in charge now and that the President is not "faithfully executing the laws". We have selective prosecutions going on, we have selective enforcement of the laws going on or should a put quotes around "laws". ObamaCare is unconstitutional no matter what the Supreme Court say. Most of what the Federal government does is unconstitutional and this goes back 100 years.

We can see clearly where big govnerment is heading, to a type of social facism. Where already there in parts.

Do we really want government to enforce all laws and non-laws and illegal laws?

One could argue yes, so that voters actually get what they voted for good and hard. But remember, enforcing all the laws is literally impossible. Every American violates at least one law and possibly a felony every single day. Imprison everyone. Now, that's a plan.
