I hate police just as I hate any criminal gang.
Police do more to protect bad guys from the rightful consequences of their actions than to protect good people from bad guys, so they are worse than useless.
The only good cop is an ex-cop. The ex-cops I have known make me look like a copsucker by comparison. They know the score.
I don't need cops to "defend" me, since there is no situation so bad it can't be made worse by inviting "authority" addled, steroid junkies to join in.
