Crazeybroadsword - topradio. I suppose it all comes down to whether you believe in the word of law at all. What does law matter? If its inconvenient to me to abide by it why should I comply?
That old guy down the road, he's passed it, an anyway I don't like the way he looks. if I bump him off who cares? Yes I know its against the law but what value is he giving to society? I'll actually be saving everyone money if I take him out.
Is that what you want? Whether the law is enforced or not comes down to how much it costs?
The Guy in the ASU gets to hear about a really dangerous vehicle pursuit that he could quite quickly bring to an end, - its putting everyone's life at risk. So should he deploy until he knows whether the driver has (a) committed murder or (b) failed to take out Insurance? Your decision! I know you wont go. Its only later you find out he shot dead 8 people in a bar because he was refused a drink. How's the cost benefit scale looking now?
