RE: Governments are shooting at their citizens
That is, of course, true. But my problem is not with police, but with the type of police that only governments produce.
In a free society, police officers would fear the wrath of any citizen that is wrongfully stopped, searched, violated whatever. They would behave.
It's only because of the religion of government, that police officers have convinced themselves that they were "just following orders".
It's only because of the religion of government, that a) people need to protest for what should always be rightfully theirs and b) cops shoot them down, because they serve the masters in government.
Without government, people wouldn't protest government. And therefore police wouldn't spend its time protecting their masters in government.
A police officer would actually have to be a courageous and righteous individual without government.
So, to avoid having any lengthy discussion about good and bad cops, I avoided that problem by just saying that government shoots at its citizens.
