That was community is about, people that care about you and willingly will defend you and your community with they power.

The existence of police take the power of the community and insolate you, making you feel helpless without them.

I don't live by any family, I don't want to know or talk to people in the community or help them with their problems. I like just using my tax money to pay someone else to handle that. If somebody breaks into Mr. Johnson's car to steal his change, we aren't putting a posse together to find the guy.

And if we were responsible for solving our own crimes, I am going to go from being for gun control to loving the second amendment. Nobody better steal my change, because I value my property more than I value most people. Even my Aldi cart quarters in the cup holder.
