There are law makers and law breakers and law enforcers

[Gramps]

They represent the three monkeys: hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil.

We are a nation swamped by unenforceable laws, a fact that's is readily admitted by the people in law enforcement. The law makers have to justify their jobs by legislating new laws that the law breakers are delighted to break while the law enforcers hands are tied simply by numbers. If they weree to enforce all the laws all the time it would take a force ten, maybe twenty, or even thirty times the size that budgets allow. One law in particular, while it's not an earth shattering rule, regards the setting off of fireworks which people just ignore and which police can't get around to enforce. But the list is more profound than fireworks. Our borders are breeched on a daily basis and laws don't stop it and our border patrol doesn't have the numbers to enforce the laws.

There are so many thousands of laws on the books that I've come to believe that a lot of them are just there in case they need to pull one out for convenience. If they want to get somebody it's not hard to find something that he did wrong. Otherwise they don't bother with a good portion of them.

You know how cops are, the think everybody ought to be arrested and jailed at least once.

You cannot drive to town and buy groceries these days without violating a law.

We are all probably violating some law at any given time, there are so many.

We need fewer laws, and far fewer cops, couple with swift and certain justice for those that violate the few laws we do need.

We need drastic reform of the tax and legal codes so that the average person can have half a damned clue what is going on.
