Reading the article and some of the comments, I am left to wonder - are any of you living in the cities which are soon to fire all their police and leave it to each of you to protect yourselves? What of when you are at work (or is that no longer going to happen) and your family are without you...are you going to trust everyone to watch out for them?
By taking arguments to extremes we are allowing the communists to win as we encourage the dissolution of our society.
Remember, your argumet may be right...but it is just as important that you search for a wise answer also.
That's why people need to know self-defense and arm themselves to protect their property. Communists want to take your guns. Maybe they will say no police, and no firearms ownership :P
