fine if you think my above post was 'funny' but I meant no humor in it.
It's sad but we must be obedient at all costs or you may lose your life no matter who you are or what age you are. It happens everyday, and you don't know if it's going to be a good cop or a bad cop, it's like playing Russian roulette. One just has to be obedient and pray they get a good cop. Police need to be trained to treat people like human beings and not abuse or shoot first and ask questions later.
AXE THE POLICE !!!
I mean the bad ones, but how do you root those out ?
Sorry Ketamine, I thought it funny you pointed at the civilry being mistaken by obedience. Obedience being promoted by the allmighty and never questioned authorities such as the police, as being civilry. Funny and insightful cause you are right of course IMHO.
The obedience is there too because people are afraid to get into trouble with the police. Also very civilized people who don't want to harm anyone. Why is that? Why are they afraid? Because they know the police have the power to use violence against them without any reason at all and not have to take responsibility for it.
They are protected by higher authorities and they know it and the public knows it.
In my personal experience with the police I found out they don't like it when your attitude is free, without any worries, respectful but asking questions they are not able to respond to or don't want to respond to as they consider it as attacking their authority. You just have to obey and do what they say. If you know your rights as a civilian and the law, your do's and don'ts they get angry.
I had some hilarious experiences, I could write a book about them, but too lazy. Note: I must say I have never been mishandled by them, using violence against me.
I totally agree with you about the rest of your post so I hope you understand now why I rated it as funny.
I just don't get along very well with so-called authorities telling me what to do and what not.
I won't say it openly but the first thing I think when I encounter it is: who the f*** are you then telling me what to do.
I can't help it.
