The morality of being a police officer

Prove it.

Congragulations, but have you read up on the existence of black swans yet?

Haha it’s always nice when they do that isn’t it?

I can only take the fact that you didn’t address the bulk of my statement as your concession that we were discussing predicting future events and that since the prediction cannot be 100% accurate, you think the whole prediction is invalid, yet here you are now predicting the future economic conditions of anarchy with words like absolutely.

Quite a bet, isn’t it?

Quite contradictory unless you have change your position on prediction. Have you done such a thing?

dont bet on it.

ho ho ho.

I’m neither against betting, nor am I against all rhetorical excesses.

I have $100.00 on it, what have you?

i dont make bets with people that can’t distinguish. how will they know they have lost?

Hahaha so he tries to slip through the act.

‘Oh I am not predicting, merely betting, which is why I use the word absolutely’

Or it could be a rhetorical excess to see what response I would stir up…

trolling?

Oh right, you are just ‘testing’ the individuals of this forum with outdated platitudes in a polemicist fashion. How charitable of you.

The police are tools of oppression and control. Fuck them.

Sigh, I was being facetious there; hence the: “…”, and the fact my performative contradicting was pretty obvious. You are right I should have never said spoken about anarcho-capitalism in absolutes, but its just so easy giving in to over-the-top rhetoric

so once again. no one knows what position lam actually holds only that he doesnt argue well.

Interesting how everyone seems to ignore his signature while asking for his political position.

can a burkean whig distinguish between men with guns or not? i dont know..

can a burkean whig understand that ‘police’ in a free society have an incentive structure to respond to consumer demand for things like actual justice and politeness, and that this is superior to monopoly provision of the service?

A Burkean Whig can certainly understand that the anarcho-capitalist has absolutely no idea how to transition to his idealized society, nor does he know how much damage instant changes in instutitons does to society. Revolutions only suceed when the revolutionary change is not so revolutionary.

Interesting how some people can’t give a honest answer.

By the way, I didn’t know that Hayek was alive and posting in this forum.

I am becoming a Burkean Whig. - F.A. Hayek

And what the hell is a burkean whig anyway.
