Private policing has been done.
You had to pay a fee to have them attempt to solve whatever crime you wanted investigated.
Too bad if you’re poor.
If you’re rich the crime will be solved. Doesn’t matter if they got the right person.
Police take bribes, so they can find the other “right person”.
They were used to force workers back to work when they rebelled over poor pay and working conditions.
They were used to hunt down escaped slaves.
Want to know why people didn’t want state-funded cops? Because those police would be used to limit their freedoms. Anyone participated in a protest lately? How about being pulled over because of your color? Assets seized? Not that you would have avoided these things with private police, though. Modern police still protect the capital of the wealthy, just on the taxpayer dime now, the rich don’t have to pay them directly.
Yeah now we pay them to oppress us lmao
Reminds me of this story which I still regularly quote:
Oh yeah that one's great. I remember running into a bunch more like it somewhere, but no clue where or by who.
The beginning of that story is just 🤌
I was shooting heroin and reading “The Fountainhead” in the front seat of my privately owned police cruiser when a call came in. I put a quarter in the radio to activate it.
You forgot the "we're also seizing everything you own"
"We Will also sell you out for Slave Labor".

Man, it’s pretty sad my first thought was “did I miss an article about this?”
The horrors of the vampires that are private prisons are bad enough, no need to make shit up
"Make shit up"? My dear cabbage dumpling, this is a meme that uses hyperbole to dunk on ancaps, not an academic treatise
My dear cabbage dumpling
Is there an uncommon insults community floating around?
