Some of you want no taxes, some no police, some no government at all (does that mean no laws at all?), but not one of you has offered a single answer to how things would work without them.  bill w

 

 

BillW, to clarify: I am not in favor of abolishing police.  I believe in government, strictly controlled.  I am an archist perhaps more archist than most.  I oppose the notion of abolishing police, but we must face the possibility that some police forces may be abolished by consensus and some may be abolished by a collective failure of city governments, some may be abolished by the police union walking off the job because the rioters they arrested yesterday are all back out there with revenge on their minds.  Result: Americans need to have guns, in any of these scenarios.  

 

How things would work without a police force: badly.

Again, I bring up abolishing the police. It should always be on the table, IMO.

 

There ya go, Dan.  That notion should put to bed any remaining suggestion that Americans do not need to own a gun.  Even the possibility that an entire police force could just get pissed and walk off the job (as they did in St. Louis this week) should be a clear unambiguous reminder that a well-regulated militia is necessary to the security of a free state.  

 

If we abolish the police, we also abolish all gun control laws, all of them.  Without a professional police force, we all need to have and to carry guns.

 

We have the opportunity to educate our society on the meaning of the phrase “…shall not be infringed.”
