Respect for the police

Police should be respected. They are heroes. They should be respected because they do a dirty, thankless, and dangerous job.

Oh, wait a minute....

No they don't anymore (at least some). They stand back and press the button and taser citizens. They've reduced the risk that they might break a nail, or have someone plunge a dirty needle into their eyeball. Makes the job rather simple now doesn't it? Couldn't we just give tasers to the Citizens On Patrol and lay-off all the police?

Since the taser is also good corporal punishment, we could also lay out a schedule of taser jolts for each crime. Speeding, one jolt. Drunk driving, five jolts. Sex crimes, twenty-seven jolts to the gonads. This would eliminate the requirement for all that expensive legal system.
