Failure to Perform Duty

So while kids vandalized our property, our neighbor, a law enforcement officer, stood by and watched, effectively encouraging it by not discouraging it. Worse yet, two of the kids were in his care, and the note they left misdirected the blame on those kids not in their care. Then they left for the weekend...

And cops wonder why people tend to generally dislike and distrust them. Luckily, competing jurisdictions do not always tend to get along well, so we have recourse avenues.

I try to be optimistic, wanting to believe that this particular individual is the exception and not the rule, but I'm less encouraged as time goes on. I have even met some decent people who happen to be in law enforcement. In a free and voluntary society, we would simply not pay these sort of people, effectively discouraging these sort of characters from holding positions of authority.

Cop "Euthanizes" Box of Kittens with Gun

An animal control officer shootsa box of kittens in front of a family with children, rather than taking them to be euthanized, if that were even necessary. 

An Ohio policeman shot to death a litter of kittens on Wednesday, telling a group of screaming children that the animals would be going to "kitty heaven". But instead of firing the officer, the local police department cleared him of any wrongdoing.

In a free market, psychopaths like this guy would never be able to hold a job like this.
