REPLY: The police are no longer here to protect society. They are here to extract as much money from us at gun point. This is precisely how Rome fell. Once there was not enough money to pay pensions, the army began sacking their own cities to get paid.

I was just given a parking ticket for not being directly within the white lines on Christmas Day on private property in from of Starbucks and the cop gave two other cars parking tickets while we were waiting inside in line. Of course it is illegal. But you then have to hire a lawyer, go to court, take off a day, wait for hours, to stand up and say he had no jurisdiction to write parking tickets on private property. So what happens? You pay the fine.
