Law Enforcement does not Correlate to Safety or Protection
The truth is Law Enforcement has nothing to do with protecting you as an individual. At most LE is nothing more than revenue generators for the Government, they do not even solve a tenth of real crimes that happen. All Law Enforcement Officers' violates someone’s rights on a daily basis, even a minor traffic stop is a violation of your rights. When a LEO initiates force were there was none, to enforce an arbitrary rule for a Malum prohibitum act, he/she is creating a victim were there was none. This doesn't mean he/she has malice in their act, but possibly to ignorant to realize it, yet that still is no excuse. Just because something is a Statute, doesn't mean it is a good Statute, in fact over 95% of all Statutes should be ignored or abolished, unless there is a true victim and then justice should be served. So I think a broad stroke should be painted, unless that LEO follows the Natural law, which means he/she would arrest a real criminal, were in fact there is a true victim, or at least that LEO should do nothing at all and leave people alone, only then you would have a good LEO. I see no reason to support the oppressor of the state, they are not you propagandized neighborhood good guy cop like they have been promoting since the 1920’s with Movies and TV shows and good media promotional union team. Law Enforcement have no legal duty to respond and prevent crime or protect the victim. There have been over 10 various supreme and state court cases the individual has never won. Notably, the Supreme Court STATED about the responsibility for the security of your family and loved ones is "You, and only you, are responsible for your security and the security of your family and loved ones. That was the essence of a U.S. Supreme Court decision in the early 1980's when they ruled that the Law Enforcement do not have a duty to protect you as an individual."It is well-settled fact of American law that the Law Enforcement have no legal duty to protect any individual citizen from crime, even if the citizen has received death threats and the Law Enforcement have negligently failed to provide protection." There is no true oath to protect and serve individuals, unless it is that for the places that Government has claimed for its own, such as buildings and government employees, the origin of the Protect in Serve motto began in February 1955, the Los Angeles Police Department, through the pages of the internally produced BEAT magazine, which conducted a contest for a motto for the police academy. The winning entry was the motto, "To Protect and to Serve" submitted by Officer Joseph S. Dorobek. "To Protect and to Serve" became the official motto of the Police Academy. With the passing of time, the motto received wider exposure and acceptance throughout the department. On November 4, 1963, the Los Angeles City Council passed an ordinance and the credo was placed alongside the City Seal on the Department’s patrol cars, then eventually expanded to other departments around the country after that.

If you have read my article, you would have noticed that it really doesn't matter on the policies or on what LEOs and their masters do, the fact is Law Enforcement is irrelevant, and should not exist, the only way conflict resolution and arbitration should be handled is within the free market, Government should never claim a monopoly on something that is so important for people when it is truly needed. With that said, it is good to show people what the Government has created, and to show the extent of the lack of accountability is, but at the same time, most people ignore it, unless it happens to them or someone they know, even then they will usually tell themselves that LE is doing their jobs, which just shows how much Stockholm syndrome has been embedded into people from youth to adulthood. I merely show people that LE is not even their for them, to protect them, or even to help them if they need it, the institution of LE is no more than a scam imposed of the masses, to accept the rules that the bureaucrats put into place, and to allow themselves to be violated in anyway that would make them a good citizen (slave).
Agreed! The "institutes" learned a long time ago to get them while their young.
The only way to persuade people is through reason or force!

Thats my page and my article, so it is my own commentary, and I see no reason why I should not post it on here.
There's no reason you can't but there is a lot of identity theft here. I left a comment on your facebook page. I'll edit my comment when I get a response. Are you posting as @travisanything too? Or just liked the article?
No, I'm not posting as anyone other than myself, this was my first posting and my first time on steemit, plus I just replied to your comment on my FB page. Are you an admin?
No, just a user trying to prevent abuse like identity theft. Thank you for taking the time to do this.
You might want to consider crossposting links. There is no way to show you have been "verified" in your post. It'll also generate more traffic for you in both places.
I knew twitter you could cross-post links, but since I'm new on here, I'm not sure how to do it yet.
It's not simple or easy yet. Basically just make sure a link to each other site is in the post or comment section.
You might see "cheetah" bot around. As long as it is your article you can ignore him. He just makes the comment so that users are aware and manually check the post. If you decide to start posting in both places on the same day you can ask him to white list you in steemit.chat in the steemitabuse-appeals channel.
