On a civillian national police or "national security" force
What I would like to do here is talk about obama's call for a civillian national security force. Now I am starting a separate thread on this as I do not want comment on obama at all, I don't want this to be a thread on the man. I want to discuss what your feelings are regarding this.
Key points I am looking for. 1. What do you think this would/should encompass? 2. Who would they protect us against. 3. Who would it be made up of? 4. How will it be paid for? 5. How will it coexist with a police force 6. Do you think we even need one AKA is this a good idea. Thank you all for participating. |

Re: On a civillian national police or "national security" force
My thoughts on this matter are obvious as a libertarian. It is not needed, Further I do not undersand who they are going to protect us against and how this will be paid for.

Re: On a civillian national police or "national security" force
One-ah-ah-ah. Two-ah-ah-ah. Thrrrrrrrree, ah-ah-ah. Three threads! Next we can talk about the same topic but ask only how women feel about it. We can call it the "view from the View about civilian national police". |

zyph as I said in this thread and where I posted it. I want this to be a discussion on a national police or security force, not on obama's plan for one... There is a key fundamental difference here that none of the other threads addressed. thank you. |

"What I would like to do here is talk about obama's call for a civillian national security force"
As I said, its a variation and enough that I haven't merged them. Was just giving fair warning that if you continue to post more, and the variation is not enough to warrant its own thread, it will be merged. |

Re: On a civillian national police or "national security" force
Very well....
Let me clarify what you quoted. I don't want to talk about obama, or obama's plan to, I would like to discuss the very idea of a civillian national police force. Thank you. |
