How can people think this is a good idea?
What kind of people will take the job if they are paid peanuts?
How will they afford the necessary training they need?
How does this jibe in the places where the 2nd Amendment has been neutered?
Don't get me wrong, I hate government overspending more than anything and ideally I'd love to see people protect themselves but there's a lot of steps that need to happen to make that work
A legitimate function of government is to protect property and safety of the populace, unfortunately, this usually takes armed agents of the state to happen.
This is a bad idea that exists on both the left and the libertarian sides
