referring back to the only study I've found worth reading which began as an excessive police force and ended up quite differently Johnpe's figures coincide nicely with the Cato Institutes findings as follows. One Percent of police per police population engage in criminal acts of all types the percentage is the same across the range of criminal acts except in one area dealing with underage minors where it is slightly above one percent.

One percent of the General Population engage in criminal activities as a percentage of the population across the entire range of criminal acts.

100 percent of the media which diverts attention from the root problem with propaganda is not charged much less convicted of a criminal act.

To repeat an earlier post. Since police are one of the two main functions of government that one percent in perspective may be likened to one driver out of a hundred who has a defective vehicle, is drunk, under the influence of drugs or or road rage or a combination.

The congress passed a law demanding these statistics be passed into a central collection ipoint in 1993. Clinton signed it and ignored it. Bush ignored it. Obama is ignoring it though thre are claims to a two year collection. Cato Institute goes back to the nineties.

One percent does not count outside the country, Not correcting a fault with one percent of the police and excusing the faults of one percent of the population for whatever reason is the fault of the country.

going back to the percentage provided by woodlema WHY of all societies are we at 99% and holding?

WTF Up! as in Wake the... and think about who you are voting for? Good choice or just an enabler.

No one including those who advocate false interpretations of the second amendment are allowed or disallowed to write anything they please.

One more time

Second Amendment until it was disconnected in it's two phrases referred to the States being protected through their State militias. The federal government has no rights granted to deny citizens zippo. They do have a right (See section on Congress I think it's article 1 section 8) to regulate the State Militias among other things. Thee is no byproduct as the Feds have no rights granted and do not grant powers to the citizens it's the other way around.

Haller vs Washington DC which separated the two phrases put the rest of the complaint back in the hands of the States only directing Washington DC to issue a firearms license to Haller valid in his own home and no further.

Nowhere in the second amendment does it stipulate beyond the States because they have no right granted to do so and the Supreme Court recognizing that side stepped and made no comment on 9th and 10th Amendment thus affirming they had no rights granted.

I fully support the position but not with urban legends. the more the second amendment argument is pressed versus the 9th and 10th amendment fact the more likely this goverenment will move to claim the right and then use it.

Given the current President Obeyme's love of ignoring the Constitution and his lack of knowledge in that area let's not provide him any reasons to attempt another Executive Order.
