All societies need law enforcment. Some of the best minds in history have tried to envision a society that does not require law enforce, but failed. Mark Twain's Huckleberry Finn comes to mind, and ST. Thomas More's clever novel utopia. But both efforts fell short. I will never ever report any kind of a crime again unless it is against my daughters. There is about a 50/50 chance that the reported will be the one that gets charged. Try reporting a burglary. You won't believe it. The first thing the police say is, "Do you have homeowners.rent insurance?" Report a car theft, and the police will say, "Who'd you sell it to?" Report a theft of money, and they'll ask you questions about the local casino. I think 99% of these police complaints of a citizen assaulting them are made only so the officer can take a paid day off work - so they can recover. Police will never ticket a relative, even if they accidently caused an accident. 75% of police seem to think nothing of destroying someone.
