Great video. Funny how their mafia gives out paid vacation instead of jail time when someone "on their team" violently attacks an innocent victim. The myth of authority needs to destroyed. No human has the right to rule over another human. That right can not be delegated because no one has it.

Thanks for stopping by Luke. I wish everybody knew that such a right to delegate does not exist. Peace.
I believe that there should be a right to rule. Of course not in this term but more like the way we elect politicians.
If she did something wrong yes she should get arrested but she didn't and i hope that the officers get stripped of their badge, uniform and gun forever!
So if I get a bunch of my friends together, call myself a government and vote to rule over you and tell you you can't start a business, build a house, drive a car, go fishing, fly a plane, or prepare and sell your own food without permission from my government, you'd be okay with that?
The only difference is scale and what you choose to believe about authority. If no individual has the right to rule over another individual then no ritual (such as voting for politicians) can make it so or delegate that right to anyone else.
What I think is more accurate is you want the results of what you see from a civil society with strong, effective government. I want the same. The difference is I don't attribute those results to government, but think they happen in spite of government. When economic freedom exists, people prosper and move up Maskow's hierarchy. Governments often severely limit economic freedom, mainly through their monopoly control of currency and purchasing power, but also through regulatory capture, revolving door politics, and threats of violence and imprisonment.
Whether or not someone did something wrong is not solely determined by whether or not they broke the law. Law is supposed to be a proxy for morally accepted truths in society. Unfortunately, most people don't have the time or philosophical headspace to work out their own moral framework and so they accept that of the government which leads to gross immorality being considered normal and right (such as victimless "crimes").
I could go on and on, but I've written about these topics at length already:
Where Does Your Morality Come From?
Beyond Cartoon Morality: The World Isn't Bad Guys vs. Good Guys
If I had the oportunity to vote for you or someone else and you won then yes I would be.
Well ask yourself what would happen if right now there was no laws, no government and no law enforcement.
If everybody was respectful of each other and our property then it might work but that's impossible because there is always that lazy bitch that will steal and kill so they don't need to work and that's why humans need to have laws and someone to enforce them - a government.
Yes you are right about the morality etc. but tell me where would you prefer to live right now. In one of the Western countries ( US, Canada, Germany, France etc.), in a country like Russia where if you don't agree with the government you get sent to a prison camp or without a government - to have your home, village and everything pillaged and your family murdered and never to get justice (not saying that you get it now 100%)?
What's worth considering is can we have law and conflict resolution without government? I think we can.
Example:
Asking where I prefer to live is an irrelevant question if all countries share a morally reprehensible perspective on authority. It's like asking, "Which plantation would you like to be a slave on? I hear the Jones' over there have really nice masters." Since you and I share a different perspective on this, I understand if my comparison of governments to human farming and slavery is absurd to you, but in the very same way, your accepting rulership over you because some people went through a ritual and voted is equally absurd to me. It's like two wolves and a sheep voting on what to have for dinner.
My perspective is based on philosophical principles, but it's not void of reality either. For example, organizations like Detroit Threat Management have actually been far more successful at keeping peace than police "peace officers". They have different motivations and do their work via voluntary means supported by market forces, not government threats.
If you want to dive in more, I suggest reading For a New Liberty by Rothbard (you can listen to it online for free on YouTube). This is also a good watch to understand where I'm coming from:
@highimpactflix: sorry for filling up your comments with videos and such, but I have a hunch you won't mind the content presented here.
One more for you, if you'll allow it:

I definitely believe that these policies have received a very bad training.There is no way most of them behave this way,some is definitely wrong with they train them.
