Do the police think that they are gods?

142. There were no "armed citizens" in any of those countries.

The protesters in Romania certainly weren't armed, and in the others nearly all of the weaponry came from defecting police & military units or sympathetic organizations outside the countries and foreign governments. Any claim to the contrary is a lie, and it's a EXTREMIST RIGHTWING LIE to boot.

In trying to tear down any & all govt civil authority (granted by elections in democracies like the US), your allies the murderous extremists like Tim McVeigh, David Koresh and Randy Weaver. They all wanted the police and the govt to be weak, ineffectual and incompetent too - just like you do. The sad, sick fact is that the tragic events initiated by these psychopathic bastards - your friends - played out the way they did mostly because the law enforcement agencies involved did not have or were denied the resources, materiel and training they needed to resolve these incidents peacefully.

You EXTREMIST RIGHTWING solutions would create the very situations you're complaining about.
