We Don't Need No Sticking Bajjjes

Disintegration of all police departments would seem an insane and anarchical stance, but as Americans we are very close to this now. Parking tickets, speeding tickets, public intoxication, showing your johnson in public, etc., etc., etc. These are all things that our police now enforce and rightly they should, but what about laws on the books that are not being enforced.

In Houston illegal immigrants that are pulled over for a traffic violation that do not have legal ID are released because the Houston PD does not want to get involved in immigration. Several members of the Border Patrol have been prosecuted by the testimony of illegal immigrant drug dealers. Their biggest crime, keeping illegal aliens out of our country.

Maybe we don't need to do away with the police department, just the people that police the police departments. I would posit one's on the street police officer would do the right thing the majority of the time if it was not for the involvement of the anal, counter-productive, paper pushing policy makers. The policy makers have no street experience, nor do they really understand what faces our country. What they do have as a unifying force is a political agenda dictated by their puppy-dog leash holding politico masters; see Nancy Pelosi.

Carlos Mencia's solution to not experiencing a terrorist attack is to fly Southwest Airlines. As Carlos claims, "Just tell a black guy he will not be able to land in Oakland." Simply, the Southwest passengers will not restrain you or kick your ass--they will do you bodily harm until the threat is removed and in most cases this means death. Being from Dallas, where Southwest was born, I can especially attest to this when free beer is given for a late arrival.

My point is, the police and most citizens will enforce the common law as it is now known. Conversely, beliefs of special interest groups such as the ACLU are not accepted nor believed by most. In the infancy of this country there was a sparse law enforcement structure, but there was a firm and consistent common law structure that the citizens embraced. In fact, when law enforcement needed help, the citizens would assist in catching the criminal. At this point, we cannot return to this structure. First we must allow law enforcement to do their job--without the bureaucrats and Milquetoast policy makers.
