The Police State

Hello and welcome to the second segment of Why Rid Ourselves Of The US Government. In this episode if you will I’m going to be moving out of the drug war and into the police state where I’m going to discuss some of the many problem with American police and even some psychology behind police and the truth about their job. Enjoy!

I’m sure many people have seen the bumper stickers and the Facebook propaganda posts saying “protect and serve”. I always find this interesting. Protect and serve conjured up the idea that police forces are servants of the public, and that their job is to maintain safety and order. This unfortunately is not the case. Police, better described as Law Enforcement exist to enforce any law or command that they receive from politicians. This being said their job is more accurately to “protect and serve” the interests of the politicians. This is a toxic problem for Americans because we have no control of police and are expected to do whatever they tell us. It is impossible for freedom to exist in a system like this. There's a reason they are called police forces, because they force us often absolute strangers to obey whatever law or regulation that’s been passed regardless of its immoral nature.

Back in the 70’s there was a study done which tested the psychological effects of the prison system on guards and prisoners called the Stanford Prison Experiment. For those who aren’t familiar with this I’ll give a brief synopsis, but I encourage you to do deeper research yourself. The Stanford experiment took place in a makeshift prison built with to resemble a small prison block. A group of normal healthy college volunteers were randomly picked to be guards or prisoners. The guards were tasked with maintaining prison order and the prisoners were well meant to be prisoners.

There were a lot of other things that made the experiment seem real such as giving each prisoner a number and calling each only by their number. The experiment lasted six days and as the experiment went on both the guards and the prisoners quickly fell into their roles. This is why the experiment is interesting the guards, just normal healthy college student starting being very sadistic, and treated the prisoners horribly. The prisoners however actually started obeying every single command that the guards gave them. I think this in a small way reflects the relationship people can have with cops. Now, we aren’t in a prison and we aren’t isolated from family and stuff. But, this study showed that someone dressed as “authority” or given the position of authority will change the way they view people. The guards by the third day didn’t even view the prisoners as people but instead as caged animals at best. This is interesting because we see this happening a lot with cops. Giving them the power to literally murder someone with little to no punishment or arrest someone for doing nothing wrong creates both sadistic wolves who do pretty much whatever they want, and also a high. When the Stanford experiment was ended prematurely due to psychological that the prisoners developed, all the guards were unhappy and wanted the experiment to continue. They enjoyed their power and their ability to control every detail of the prisoners lives during the experiment.


This is the problem with “Law enforcement” they are not accountable to us, the people. They can do absolutely terrible things, even beyond drug busts from beating people to death or even sexual assault and their are still considered the “brave men and women in uniform”. Thousand of people tote the blue lives matter merchandise, and praise their slave masters for ruining the lives of innocent people every damn day. This is why we need to get rid of this system, we need free market companies that are directly accountable to their customers. We need collective security measures, not officers. And, we absolutely need to scale back and deconstruct the police state, they do not protect us, and they do not serve us. They protect whatever laws and commands are issued by politicians, and they serve their own sad ego.


Thank you for your time, I am always interested to hear what people have to say! I hope you’ve enjoyed and learned something from this article. Part 3 will be coming soon. And, to wrap this all up ladies and gentlemen.... PEACE.
