Well too bad, when you're a pig you don't get to write the rules. You become the government's bitch, enforcing all the rules that are handed down to you from above. Which means you will be required to violently subdue completely innocent people who aren't harming anybody like pot-smokers and prostitutes, then kidnap them and lock them up in cages.

Sure, stopping rape and murder sounds like a good thing, but you will very rarely actually do that, if ever. Most of your work will probably be catching speeders, drug users/dealers, prostitutes and the like. When you do end up investigating a murder or rape, your job will be to punish people after the crime has already been done instead of actually attacking the root causes of crime (like poverty and social alienation) to prevent such things from happening in the first place. All you'll do is lock up criminals in cages with other violent people in an atmosphere devoid of love and care, so they can become more frustrated and more violent, and then release them back into society again angrier than they started off. Doesn't exactly sound like a good way to fight crime if you ask me.

And of course, you'll only be able to take down the criminals who have no power. When the government wants to rob me of my money through taxes, or steal my weed through unjust legislation, or stockpile weapons of mass destruction designed to murder innocent civilians, you can't do a damn thing about it, and will sometimes even be obligated to participate in the crime.
Oneironaut Reviewed by Oneironaut on . Being late isn't all that bad... Well I had quite an eventful day today. Bored sitting at home with nothing to do, with money. So i called up my dealer asked for a quarter. I tell him ill be there in 20 minutes. Luckily i took a shower first and ate so i started twords his house at about 35 minutes. Right as I turn on his street there are 4 cop cars outside and i watch them as he answers the door. They pull him to the ground and cuff him on sight. I turned the fuck around and ran all the way home. Poor kid he was just about to Rating: 5
