-Caveat Lector- >These folks are almost ALL momma's boy/wannabes' who NEED to control SOMETHING in their lives, and who see the badge and gun as the easy/only way to meet this need... There's good one and there's bad ones, just like anybody else. The real probem is with the institution of police force that is seperate from the populace. It turns good men into animals and bad men into monsters. It does NOT protect us from evil. It does protect tyrants. What we need intead is an armed, trained populace where everybody is a cop, or can be when the need arises. If, fate forfend, I ever have to yell for help I want the nearest people to be ready, willing and able to do it. 911 is a joke. End the War On (Some) Drugs and almost all crime will evaporate virtually over night. The same goes for a standing army. It serves no defensive function. It is only for invading others and taking their resources. For defence we don't need an army, we ARE an army. Anybody invades, we'll kill 'em, plain and simple. If we can't run our economy without exploiting people on the other side of the planet then we need to change the way we do business. First and foremost, we need to stop burning petroleum. Convert to alcohol NOW. Quit using oil and quit making enemies. The world will top hating us and the threat of terrorism will evaporate. And all that money that we've been spending on the military, or most of it anyway, we can spend on things we actually need, like education, medicine, infrastructure, and art. Our tax money doesn't go to defend us; it goes to defend corporate profits. DECLARATION & DISCLAIMER ========== CTRL is a discussion and informational exchange list.
