St. Louis Police Cell Phone Use

Over the last few days, I've seen several police officers driving their cruisers while talking on their cell phones. One can't help but wonder what makes this activity so dangerous when enacted by a mere mortal, but not when committed by a member of the elite ruling class (the state). To be true, driving while impaired or distracted IS dangerous. I wonder if any of the king's men would be held personally responsible if their distracted driving caused harm or even death to a member of the serfdom, or if they would have qualified immunity.

Police Officer: lecturer

During a non-emergency dispatch to a piece of property I manage, the responding officer bemoaned how “society has changed” and how today’s kids are becoming more “liberal” which has caused an increase in crime. He then went on to recommend I read the book “Stop Teaching Our Kids to Kill” by Lt. Col. Dave Grossman.

I bit my tongue despite the overwhelming irony and hypocrisy. The state, and thus the police, is the ONLY entity that can legally kill. My response should have been to recommend he reads LRC and, specifically, Will Grigg’s postings.
