"With your logic, we don't need a local police force anywhere in the USA because the people should defend themselves against criminals."

Is this your idea of analysis?

Police have never protected anyone, nor prevented a single murder. They come in after the fact, and establish symbolic power. If you wish to live, you have to be prepared to defend yourself by whatever means are available to you.

Your huffing and puffing provides no answer to anything; you haven't a reasonable understanding of current nor historic events.

What an incredibly stupid thing to say. You sound like one of those Posse Commitatus kooks. Organized police forces do indeed keep us safer and keep criminals from committing more murders. They can't be in all places at all times, but they sure as hell keep us better protected by at least acting as a deterrent. Remove a police force from a city and see if the crime rate goes up. This should be elementary to you, and I'm shocked it's not. You've clearly been brainwashed by either the Freemen, Stormfront, Posse, or some other lunatic fringe anarchist group.

You're just ticked off cause I'm loaded with facts and that I'm handily winning the debate against you and your fellow stormfront buddy named rightwinghour, who is an easy opponent in a debate. He's losing so badly he's given up against me. I argue with facts, logic and critical thinking skills while he is reduced to babbling over the technical difference between Congressional approval for use of force and approval for war. It's laughable. And he has another howler of a losing debate position when he is reduced to mumbling something about resistance movements under soverign governments versus occupational ones.

My positions make a hell of a lot more sense than yours.
