1) With no cops at all, security would be taken on by the private sector, and would thus be more responsive and less costly on a net basis. As for cities: not my problem.
2) I am sure of the million or so cops in this country, at least one has helped someone within the last twenty-four hours when someone else was not looking.

Fair enough, Skirnir. My response to your answers...

1) As a citizen who was once proud of our nation, yes our nation, in a patriotic sense, I care enough about 'our' cities to want to see their well being. Same with our country as a whole. The 'not my problem' mentality is what is going to bring our country to it's knees eventually.

2) You proved my point that nobody sees the good things cops do. A million cops, every day, do things such as the example I posted, but it is not recognized at all. This is by design, imo. Not playing on any predispositions, but we talk a lot about agendas on this forum. I thought my questions and thoughts on the subject a direct one, not one to fool others. Honest questions.
