I'm glad I don't live in Cicero's paranoid little world.  Come join the rest of us in the 'real world' any time
Cic!


No paranoia box, there is plenty of evidence out there.  I know in your mind Vietnam and Iraq were just a couple of "bad apples" in the state bunch resulting in hundreds of thousands if not millions of deaths.  Just a little state "oops".  SORRY.

It must be part of the military conditioning.  The ability to justify the mass extermination of a foreign people as just an error of the state's judgement. Then they look toward the same state for more collective wisdom.

I've known a few cops in my lifetime... All but one were pretty good guys.  They would go out of their way
to help anyone, whether on duty or off.
The one exception was an honest cop, but on a bit on a power trip.  I wouldn't hesitate to call on any of them if
I needed the police.  I understand that there are a few 'bad cops' out there, but I've never encountered
one personally.
Painting all cops with that broad brush 'bad cop' label, is just unfair and IMO, wrong.


The modern conservative is engaged in one of man's oldest exercises in moral
philosophy; that is, the search for a superior moral justification for selfishness.

I don't think personally the police officers are bad....I DO HOWEVER question the legislation/regulation of the system
in which they are to perform their duties......

I'm not a police officer because I would hold court right on the spot....but, that's me.....I hold court everyday about
everything I see and hear......as we all should.....

we can legislate ourselves right into the inability to discern...why? because they told me...because they said so..
they need to do something about such and such....blah blah blah........

that's why it's WAY BEYOND the one talking face that's in the white house.......


...you are a product of your environment, your environment is a product of your priorities, your priorities are a product of you......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.

I would go out of my way to help somebody.  I don't need a badge and authorization.  If I feed a homeless person without government authorization I am a criminal.  Because in America you cannot operate outside of the state.
