Freedom is the absence of the initiation of physical force. It is established and maintained by the use of force in defense and retaliation, i.e., by means of the existence of police and military forces.

The enemies of the police are supporters of a police state. Take away the police, and Marxist/Socialist mobs will seize the government and establish a police state. It’s that simple.

The anti-police politicians who enable mobs to thrive are virtual terrorists: they deprive their citizens of protection against robbery and murder, arson and rape, et al., thereby subjecting them to a reign of terror. They should be removed from office and criminally charged.
