By David Leyonhjelm, published 1/11/2024

For libertarians, maintaining a criminal justice system, of which the police are a major component, is viewed as one of the few legitimate roles of government.

diver dan,

You are obviously a man of violence, having made calls for violence in the past on this forum, you followed that, "voting with a bullet" rubbish with; "When I (DD) see the left wing radicals machine gunned in the street, I’ll begin to take interest!" What kind of interest? You probably see me as one of those "left wing radicals" along with the members of the 'Sowers and Seamstress Guild' and the fellas from the 'Royal Order of Elks", who can tell.

These public forums attract their fair share of fruitcakes, and in your case I'm not sure whether you are of the light or dark variety, maybe even a boiled one. Its not my forum, but those statements could insight some demented follower(s) of yours to literally do as you say.

Bonger 1405.

You’ve put it in a nut shell.

This Country has a dire need for leadership, not slavish following.

There aren't sufficient numbers of Police ! In our town, the Police Station sign is not even lit at night. There are several coppers who drive around during daylight hours preying on the harmless who might miss a Stop sign or have the seat belt twisted or have a pair of thongs lying in the tray of a ute. After hours, a gang of very young hoods steal from boats opposite the Police Station or break into houses & businesses because it is common knowledge that there aren't Police on the beat ! In fact, right across the road from the station is the rowdiest section of the town at night ! If they do get called out, they give ample warning to hoods with sirens or flashing lights. Real Police whose hands are tied by do-gooders & magistrates have to watch in frustration !
I blame society for this deplorable situation. I just hope the new State Govt in Qld can act out its promise to get tough on crime. Let's hope a few coppers & Magistrates are made to pull out their fingers !
