Xtort Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 http://www.kob.com/article/stories/S3209305.shtml?cat=500#.UnkLE5TwLHt This man is pulled over for going through a stop sign or some such. They bring out the drug dog and decide it gave a positive indication of drugs. So they search him and find nothing. Then they take him to a hospital, force him to get x-rayed, and nothing. Then they probe him using their hands 3 times, and find nothing. They force him to take 4 enemas (in front of an audience), and find nothing. Then they sedate him and take him to surgery so they can really get the job done, and still find nothing. Then when all was said and done, they gave him the bill and told him to pay it. Posting this here because for statists, even minarchists, tax-funded police are something people almost unanimously agree is absolutely necessary. They forced this guy to have surgery and when it turned out they were wrong all along, not even an apology.
Xtort Posted November 8, 2013 Author Posted November 8, 2013 "Oh but theres' gonna be a few bad apples" This is the way I would use it - Statist makes a typical claim, something like "Without the police, who will protect you?" Then link that article and ask "Who was there to protect this man from being raped and surgically violated by these police?" It's worth pointing out that these cops are not under any kind of disciplinary action and their precinct is confident that it will win in court against this man's complaints against them.
