RE: #YoureOnYourOwn
Read an article recently (can't find the link) which talked about this very issue and the major disconnect between city police chiefs views and those of sheriffs. It echoes this video but goes even further.

The major distinction is that a police chief is usually an appointed position, where in most places, Sheriffs are elected and feel a need to actually represent their constituents. Those appointed usually parrot the views of those who put them in power and in big cities, almost always a democrat. They DO have to deal with firearm violence daily in their cities. Hence, their anti-gun stance.

Many sheriffs have come out and stated that it is the responsibility of the citizen to protect him/herself. They support the 2nd amendment.

We need to eliminate police because the are so costly to the tax payers and never around when you need them. Maybe if we privatized the police force, they would be more responsive to the needs of those that pay them.

Another post by Robert that doesn't address the point but in his usual way, exaggerates a point he seems to think others are making but they are not.

Rob - once again you win the non-sequitur award.

Congrats. Quite the skill set you've got there.

You are the Shakespeare of stupid short posts that make no sense, have nothing to do with the topic at hand and embarrass left wingers everywhere by association.

To post or not up post Toby!

I don't think Evil Knievel could have made that particular leap. Nice work.

Surely, even someone with your limited intellect understands that law enforcement is a largely reactionary force.

You make a joke...but...There is no reason that paradigm could not work. What if there were security insurance policies that covered the costs? No reason also to discount that private security would not step in without payment just because it would be the right thing to do and increase their reputation in the marketplace of security. We have no idea what the marketplace could come up with using competition and innovation. It for sure is not likely..but..it is not impossible to consider.

Pay the mob half of what the police get paid. Not only would they catch the crook, but justice would be swift and would prevent the individuals in question from committing further crimes...

There are already plenty of examples of successful private security already being used nationwide. It is not a stretch to say that this trend will continue with more technology being available. ADT and others have monitored video surveillance and many communities have private security. The police react to crime. In most cases they do not prevent it. Only citizens can do that.

You think there are areas of this country are violent now, just wait until you have a private police force. Only those with money get the protection...anyone else, se la vie.

Looks like Foley Minn. just went totally private and is saving money in the process. Private security companies could surely replace government security. They would have a market incentive to protect people because they would lose their jobs if they failed. What we have now is unaccountable to the public. They screw up and nothing happens.

You realize that DHS is quickly becoming the governments own private police force right? Of course you entirely support this because you are far too stupid to even understand a basis position on this topic.

You know how we know you are dumb? Because just about every single post you make proves as much.
