It’s NOT the commies. It’s the cops themselves. Who fought to have crimes against cops prosecuted at a higher level than the equivalent crime against a civilian? Not commies, cops. Who fought for qualified immunity? Not commies, cops. Who created the Thin Blue Line that divides the world into cops and scum? Not commies, cops. Who tanks future cases when DAs go hard against police corruption? Not commies, cops.
I’m not saying anything about a national police force, which I don’t actually buy is happening. I’m point out that every single problem we have with police comes from them.
I assure you that it is the commies. They are on the march.
I assure you that a national police force is the plan. But hopefully we can stop that.
Here is a good rule of thumb:
“If it has happened before, it can happen again.” ~ Sarcazmo (Sarcazmo thinks)
Commies and national police forces have been quite common throughout history. Hell, it’s happening right now in many countries.
Not understanding this is not your fault. A lifetime in Tucson will do that to you. But you’re hanging out in the right place.
I won’t argue with you, but a couple of points:
In your favor, a study of the Constitution will teach you that like you, our founders were very much concerned that our country should be prevented from becoming an abusive police force or unfair justice system.
On the other hand, condemning all police is a serious mistake. While it is true that most police departments have failings, like the old saying about democracy...it isn’t perfect but it is a lot better than any of the alternatives.
Better to make corrections, adjustments and clean up as required.
