Police should react similar to firemen and never leave the building until it is time to investigate a crime that has been committed against a person or property. Never Get Busted Americans have been brainwashed into believing cars will crash and citizens will murder each other if there were no police presence. This simply is not true. People do not, not kill people because cops are present. In other words, you are not, not being raped at this moment simply because police are on every corner…In fact, police catch less than 1 percent of all violent crimes in the act. Unlike the U.S., where it’s common to spot twenty five police in a one hundred mile trip, there are thousands of populated areas abroad that have no police presence yet they experience less crime and fewer traffic accidents. I’ve personally lived in a few of these places. The U.S.A. has the largest prison population in the history of mankind. The United States has 5% of the world’s population yet incarcerates 25% of the world’s prisoners. Communist China has ONE BILLION more in population but the U.S. has more prisoners. Does this mean Americans are more criminal than the Chinese, Mexicans and Russians? Or could this mean American police, judges, prosecutors and jailers have gone “Nazi Nuts” on Americans? U.S. police have killed over 5000 civilians since 9/11 which means an American citizen is 8 times more likely to be killed by an American cop than a terrorist. Combined, American officers, judges and prosecuting lawyers have easily caused more suffering than was endured during the Holocaust. Police should react similar to firemen and never leave the building until it is time to investigate a crime that has been committed against a person or property. When a murder, robbery or theft occurs, investigators should be sent to gather evidence, solve the crime and make the arrest. This should be the only role of police. We do not need police to be our first responders or protectors. As mentioned earlier, police rarely catch a thief, or stop rape or robbery in progress. We can be our own first responders and do it faster and with greater skill. Neighbors and friends and passerby’s can respond and help much faster than the police. Finally, nowhere in history can we find an example of government working. In fact, governments have always turned dark and corrupt which always leads to mass suffering. Government lovers claim humans are incapable of governing themselves yet they cheer and vote for a few humans to control them. If humans can’t govern themselves, then how can one expect a few of these humans to govern millions? Abolish all governments. They don’t work. Any continued support of government is continued support of force, coercion and non-consensual relationships. Peaceful Anarchy is a good start. Government–A group of people who exercise a monopoly of power by force over a specific geographic region. About The Author “You may have seen him on the pages of Maxim, or during one of his many appearances on CNN, Fox News and Spike TV. He’s the cop who turned against the drug war. In American pop culture right now, there’s nobody quite like him. As one of the former top drug cops working the Texas highways, he was ferocious, bringing down hundreds of people for possessing even tiny amounts of an illegal substance.In his new life as an anti-prohibition crusader and activist filmmaker, he’s just as ferocious, but now it’s his former colleagues in law enforcement who are sweating his intimidating gaze…Cooper is on a mission to free America’s pot prisoners and take down the abusive cops he once sought to emulate. In the terminology of war, Barry is an insurgent, lobbing bombs into the fourth estate as his form of penance for all the people he put behind bars on drug offenses.”—True/Slant Read more at http://thefreethoughtproject.com/decorated-cop-abolish-police/#mWVCMx7GP6UK3Vpz.99

But, what of the "beat cop" that we knew so well so long ago? Afraid he has gone the way of the dinosaurs. ;)
Many years ago, I worked in a black section of Baltimore. The daytime beat cop was white, six foot four, way over two hundred pounds. Weekends and nights we had two man patrol cars. The beat cop knew everyone by name. He had his own "rules". No hanging around on street corners, no loud behavior. Kids were taken home to their parents, not a judge. He would sit down at the table with the culprit and parents, explain what proper behavior was and what was expected. Nowadays such cops would be fired for insensitivity.
I drove a school bus in college and used to pick up the smartesses by their shirts and shake them. After that we were friends.
