And they don’t seem to get any less dangerous when they retire. It may be a bit of a stretch, but one might almost say that people seek out careers in law enforcement because they’re predisposed to violence.

So, why aren't you an anarchist? You know, one who thinks we should not rely on the police to protect us, but that we should get a gun to protect ourselves?

It’s exactly because policing attracts people prone to violence that - ideally - would make them especially well-suited to maintain public order. I’m not an anarchist because anarchy is an inherently flawed, self-defeating system (we’ve been over this before).

I have to question why you are an anarchistic, since you seem to think that coppers are paragons of moral virtue, with the probity and good sense to keep the rest of us safe from harm.
