“Oh good lord. See how far Socialism can take you, Sweden? What’s next?”

- If this is an example of Socialist law enforcement, what would, for instance, a liberal approach to steroids look like? Or, a Conservative one?

Good point. This goes above and beyond liberal/conservative lines. It’s safely in the neutral stupidity region.

That's a trick question. Liberals and conservatives can both be statists. What this story describes is a statist approach to law enforcement, not necessarily a socialist one, though statism and socialism go hand-in-hand.
