That is your personal view but not mine so it is rather pointless to make a wall of text about it. I am an adamant Authoritarian as I have stated on these forums countless times if you are in custody you need to sit down and shut the fuck up or get a beating that is the way the justice system should operate because then it would either kill these little twinkle-toed anarchist fucks or teach them some manners.
It's not pointless for me to challenge your opinion, especially when a lot of the case lies in both factual and legal grounds.
It's not about a point of view. If you're an authoritarian then surely you agree that the law is the law and hence must apply to all people equally regardless of who they are.
There are no laws stating that you must be quiet once you are in custody, like I say, up until the point you are tried you are considered innocent of all crimes by the law. You retain the Freedom of speech.
Getting a 'beating' is a form of corporal punishment. I am against this punishment but in any case it is not up to a law enforcement officer to deliver any such punishment. In order for a brutal system that uses corporal punishment to stand up to its ideals relies on the laws being applied only when it can be confirmed that it has been broken.
If the system does not follow this then it cannot justify it's existence, it's not an Authoritarian system it's a corrupt Fuedal system. The fact that no Authoritarian system exists without these safegaurds enforced shows that the system is contrived and as backwards as the methods of punishment it uses.
Like I say, the officer would also need to be subject to said punishment for disobeying the rules or being an 'Anarchist' as you put it.
Like I say, she is a minor who was suspected of automobile theft. I don't know why that would make her an Anarchist, early you were suggesting that she was a Communist!
You can't kill someone becuase of their behaviour. It's an ethical and moral paradox. Whomever kills the person is then also a killer and should be punished under the same rules. Basically, corporal punishment can never escape the fact that it's existence is incongruous.
I fail to see why you are not more able to supply a decent argument behind your ideas. Grouping people who commit crimes as 'commies' or 'anarchists' is naive and doesn't address the actual problems behind the crimes. The idea that you can just kill or punish them in this way is flawed. It has never worked in human history and will never work in future.
Only by addressing the causes of crime can you start to do something about them. I'm not suggesting that people shouldn't be punished, only that it should not involve physical pain and that guilt must be confirmed by a jury.
