“The more I looked at people, the more I hated them.”

On 21 January 1958, Charles Starkweather murdered the family of his 14-year-old girlfriend, Caril Ann Fugate - her mother, father and younger sister. The couple then fled and for the next week 1,200 National Guardsmen and police combed Nebraska and Wyoming in search of them. Before he was finally cornered, Starkweather shot or stabbed a further seven people. He claimed that the killings had begun when Caril Ann’s parents had made fun of him. Initially, Starkweather claimed Caril was a hostage, but he later changed his story. She was sentenced to life and was released in 1977. Aged 19 Starkweather had a one-way trip to the electric chair in Nebraska on 25 June 1959. He had modelled himself on James Dean and in at least one respect he was correct: they both died young.

There Are No Good Cops

There are no good cops anymore. They’re all bad. Even this former New Orleans cop says 70% of his department should be fired or indicted.

Don’t email me about your best friend from high school who you swear is a good cop. He’s not a good cop. Neither is the cop who lives down the street who has the fun July 4^th party every year. Your cop uncle isn’t a good cop either. They’re all bad cops. They might all be good people, great people, when you hang out with them on their days off, but being a good person outside the job does not translate into being a good cop.

If your cop friend has ever ticketed or arrested someone for a victimless crime he’s a bad cop and the poor souls he arrested or ticketed were so for committing acts that harmed nobody.

Imagine if a normal citizen started going around acting like a typical cop. Imagine a normal-looking guy in regular clothes handcuffing people, throwing them in the back of his vehicle, and then locking them up in his dungeon because he doesn’t approve of them consuming marijuana, carrying a handgun on their person for self-defense without government permission, or even fishing without a license. Imagine if this guy was demanding that people who don’t wear their seatbelts give him money. Imagine if this person was claiming the right to use violent force against anyone who didn’t comply and the right to kill anyone who physically fought back.
