Think how many guns they could sell then at gunshows.

Hey, the rich won't care, they have blackwater and wackenhut

1. Well. One positive thing from that would be this

An end to the bullshit fascist "war on drugs".

But there would be too many other negative consequences, so that gets a thumbs down from me.

3. Sounds good to me. Cops are there to protect the monied classes

I need more protection from transglobal corporations than from a neighbor growing a few pot plants

4. From what I see on DU many would love to get rid of the police or anyone in authority

At least until they call 911 and expect someone to come to their rescue, or get in a car accident and want the police to come -

The only union workers DU generally hates are the police

Aint that the truth!

Police Unions get no respect here, but I welcome their hatred.

They hate anyone who enforces the rules. They hide behind stories of Law Enforcement gone wild for their justifications. But the they hate anyone who puts their wild excesses into check and the reminder that they are not the center of the universe.

Law Enforcement is a basic societal need.

I'm proud to be a Union Leader and a Sheriff Deputy.

"...It's every man for himself!"
