Another hypocrite whining the government is murdering people while screaming the government needs to be bigger and more powerful.
You know better than that.
Saying that I support a bigger and more powerful government is as stupid and claiming RDean wants a Laissez Faire economy.
Police are hired by a community to act on behalf of that community in the investigation of crimes on the enforcement of laws.
The police MUST never be better armed than the community itself and must turn to the community for support in times of crises - ie deputize the public.
The police are an agent of the community, and a servant of the community. The police should never have the physical prowess of arms to compel anyone to do anything without the support of the armed community backing them up.
This country operated well in this fashion until about 1990, when cops got the idea that they are a military force and the people they swear to serve are the enemy.
