People never take the time to stop and think about what the enemy is and where their power lies.
Individuals of each nation love to hold their respective constitution in hand and scream "I have rights! You have rights!" but that piece of paper is useless. In fact it's worth less than the toilet paper you wipe your ass with IF the enforcement agencies do not follow what's written in it.
Why is policing littered with veterans and former soldiers? Who the hell thought that would be a good idea? The system. Why? The vast majority have no problem doing as told. In fact, living any other way is alien to them after spending years in the military.
Why did they spend generations brainwashing conservative children into praising and saluting cops? It makes absolutely no sense whatsoever.
Now who does the system use when you protest under any condition?
The police.
Angry that your business is shut down and decided to remain open as a sign of protest? Cop shows up with a ticket, second time arrest.
Angry that your privacy laws are being taken away? Cop shows up with a ticket second time you're arrested for "disturbing the peace" <--- made up bullshit
There is no circumstance where the police are the good guy when it comes to fighting government tyranny. Not one
A society that praises police is a society that creates a monster that becomes uncontrollable.
I actually hate the fact that Trump constantly praises them. We need to have people who ask point the finger at them and say "Why the fuck are you breaking your oath?"
Always remember, the Police State is the absolute worst thing that can happen to a society.
Look at any country on the planet. The instability and tyranny is because the ground troops aka blue, are the ones hammering people into place.
If the GAW is to happen, the entirety of policing needs to be reevaluated.
Laws are to entrap those who don't need them and police are nothing more than policy enforcers for criminals.
Excellent post.
Policy enforcers all the way.
