Police leaders attack calls for greater use of civilians

They must have got their act together at some Grand or Super Masonic Lodge somewhere, but the Cop-Bosses have joined up, in opposing the use of more civilians, to pretend that they operate in the public's interest in general.

The real danger,is in showing that the police arent necessary at all,to the general population, as this consists of people who are personally, generally,law abiding, self policing, socially motivated individuals,well programmed by school,church and media to be good citizens and,unfortunately for their own class interests, accommodating of their own exploitation by the people ,whose real interests are served by the coppers,the rich and powerfull capitalist class.

If there are only a few of them,civilian citizen workers,they can be 'pretend cops' enough for people not to notice, but if there are thousands of them,then word might get out.
We really dont need cops.We could be our own 'pretend cops'.

The really difficult ,thuggish work done 'by' the cops is usually reserved to be done 'on', poorer people whose desperation,tempts them to try short-cuts to accumulate enough to live on reasonably,but can't get their act together enough to do it within legal bounds, owing to the system being more loaded against you, the poorer you are.

Even when getting pissed to blot out the degradation of their everyday existence,these poorer workers can be subject of just cordial foot-breaking ,as in general again they won't remember, or be believed the next day, even if they survive.

This is just teaching 'respect' for capitalisms enforcers,when the bairns have grown up and forgotten the nice police bobby who came to their classroom..

There is a systematic failure of capitalism in that, it cannot provide to meet human needs.It can only do so at a profit. The consequences of this means, a socially created struggle ensues to maximise ones advantage,which puts us in competition with each other, for access to the means of living.

Common-ownership and democratic control of all our wealth making potential,with free access to it,rather than redistribution,according to our self defined needs,will ensure a civilised society, un-alienatated from ,the products of our labour and each other by class or privelege of access,and which will not need any thuggish reinforcement, as the end product.

Socialism's organising tenet is,"From each according to their ability, to each according to their needs".

A wholy different mindset would exist in a population which was self organised in this way .

Capitalism needs thugs to deal with its social consquences, but we dont need them.
This brutalised aspect of police-work can readily be provided in capitalism by a, socially hardened ,conditioned, private thug army of such as they use in Iraq.It is a system of society which has to deliberately ration access to wealth along priveleged lines.

Normal people wouldn't do it.

The sooner they join with us in recognising that their demands have to be set against a well entrenched economic and social system, based on class privilege and property and governed by the overriding law of profits first,then they can turn their natural talents into creating,accessing and distributing the common wealth.

Not an enforcer in sight in socialism.

Anyway the spin is here to be seen.

If you scroll down to comments on the above linked page you'll see comrade prolerat has paid a visit,with nicked statistics from class warfare to emphasize some current concerns at what the cops get up to when they are allowed out in our streets.Maybe we should tag cops?
