Be prepared for the next great transfer of wealth. Buy physical silver and storable food.

In a recent Wall Street Journal article, prosecutor Glenn McGovern writing about the recent shooting of two prosecutors in Texas asked, “Who will protect the protectors?” He wrote:

Working to make America less dangerous can be dangerous. The shocking murders of justice-system officials this year in Texas and Colorado are only among the most recent grim reminders of an everyday threat.

The article brings up an obvious question: Does anyone feel protected by police and prosecutors? Better yet, it seems appropriate to ask: Who will protect innocent citizens from the predations of police and prosecutors hellbent on framing innocent people for crimes, sometimes even “crimes” that never were committed?

This is not a superfluous question. The vast majority of people who have any interaction with an on-duty police officer do so under duress. Either they are stopped for a traffic violation or are being arrested or are being ordered around. In extreme situations, they are on the receiving end of abuse, either during a home invasion (called a “no-knock raid”) or an unpleasant encounter on the street.

As I noted in a previous article, the murders in question seem to have been professional killings, not the acts of someone angry they were put into jail or put on trial. The perpetrators, one supposes, are tied to drug gangs which are a creation of the War on Drugs, something that has benefitted and enriched both police and prosecutors. If their Sugar Daddy turns sour, it is not due to a lack of protection of the “protectors,” but rather the simple fact that the drug war is out of control.
