Oaths.

A police officers job begins with his oath, it is absolutely NOT to act solely as a law enforcement officer. There are 3 branches of government, each is to function as a check and balance for the other. When the legislative branch violates its oath by passing an unconstitutional law, it is the primary function of the police to uphold their oaths by refusing to enforce the offending law. It is the DUTY of each officer to stand between the legislature and the citizen as a check and balance of this government power. Law enforcement is the second role of the police officer in our society. Unfortunately, most people don't realize how f-ed up our system has become, they don't know what the oath means, or why they swear to it. The result, is that we have an out of control legislature, whose ideas are being rammed down our throats by a police force that has forfeited any assumed respect, has actively taken a leading role in destroying my country, and has reduced itself into the most highly organized, highly funded street gangs in the history of human civilization.

I find it really hard to believe that all the peaceful and legal channels available to us, public square, voting, running for office, etc and so forth, are going to be able to correct this situation. Must be another way that our forefathers laid out for us in case such a situation came to pass in our nation.

I don't recall ever going over the topic of oaths specifically in depth on this forum. Thoughts?

Im a little surprised this topic is so quiet. Oaths are at the core of gun control. If people followed what they swore to, there would be no gun laws.
