You are showing everybody who reads what you wrote that you have a preference to blame those that protect you from criminals.

No, I am stating that I have a preference for true Liberty.

I am saying that the State has no right to decide what the People can eat, drink, or smoke.

I am saying that such a State which will imprison its citizens for, say, owning the wrong plant, is Tyrannical.

When a crime of force or fraud is committed, that's when Law Enforcement can be legitimately involved.

The "criminals" who violate the fascist Drug War are not criminals at all. It is the State who is the criminal.

Just like with Prohibition in the 20's, all the negative factors increase when the State becomes Fascist.

Yet, you have no responsibility for this on the criminals that brought the law officers to this door to begin with because of their involvement with drugs on a criminal level.

Criminals, schmiminals. Like I said before, if someone commits force or fraud, then they're a criminal and should expect attack from the State.

Otherwise, they're a victim of State Tyranny.

If people are arrested for any other reason, IMHO, then it is the Tyrannical State which is the greatest criminal of all.

I'm a libertarian Bush voter, by the way.

So what you are saying is that the state has no laws you should ever obey.

Your definition of "True Liberty" must be "anarchy" for all then.

When the people vote in representatives for themselves in this Democratic Republic, they have the right to create laws.
You could always move to an island where nobody knows what you do and you can live your dream life that doesn't exist here in the real world.
