RE: UNplugged Radio Ep.19 - The F@#* the Police Episode
1h50m - "Policing is a business"
Now this is a great argument. The monetization of policing, which I had also referenced in a previous comment (those cops that only operate to give out traffic tickets) is the root of the problem.
As long as this "quantitative policing" that only values the "numbers" (of arrests) exists, we are going to continue to have this problem. Incentives for the average cop are not in line with "justice", but with "making arrests".
@2h1m - Everyone loves the firemen!
@2h4m - "We're livin under some type of tyranny"
The Supreme Court has decided that police "Have no duty to protect". It's a serious load of bull-shit, and you should only read on if you want to be angered.
"Warren v. District of Columbia[1] (444 A.2d. 1, D.C. Ct. of Ap. 1981) is an oft-quoted[2] District of Columbia Court of Appeals case that held that the police do not owe a specific duty to provide police services to citizens based on the public duty doctrine."

@2h8m - I hate injustice too. That's why I'm ranting here at myself in the comments (that, and just in case you guys want the feedback).
I'm sure you guys have heard plenty out of my be now, but I hope you know at least one person listened to the end and paid attention.
Also, I agree with most of what you guys, in case that wasn't obvious. I am, however, a serial devil's advocate.
