Out of control cops

10 October, 2009 (09:03) | Anarchism, Police, Libertarianism, Justice system, Government, Rights | By: Darren

A fellow market anarchist blogger, George Donnelly, just had a very nasty run-in with some state enforcers (cops) for having the audacity to legally carry his handgun in plain view on his hip while taking his son for a walk.

He writes about it here: Plymouth, PA Cops Assault Me and Terrorize My Toddler Son Right Outside My Home

Pass this around to everyone you know, especially anyone involved in doing the state’s enforcing business. I realize not all cops are like this, but widespread instances of this kind of thing are now being caught on camera and are simply unavoidable in a system that maintains a coercive monopoly on ‘protection’ and pays for it by forcibly confiscating people’s property. The truth is there is a very fine line between the State and the protection racket of something like the Mafia, a line distinguished mainly by the fact that a large number of people currently view the State’s actions as legitimate (which in no way actually makes them legitimate).
