So. There's nothing wrong with taking taxes out of peoples income to pay for criminal services and also to take money out of their insurance or pockets to pay for the forensic costs of being a victim of a crime.

I noticed you think people should vote libertarian and that explains a lot when it comes to this issue. It would be perfectly libertarian to cut out all government funding and insist that people pay for their own self defense. If you can't pay for bodyguards then tough cookies. If you get shot during a crime its your own fault and should have to foot the bills. If you can't then you die and tough cookies for you. If you get raped and you can't pay for the tests to collect evidence then tough cookies for you.

It seem that you would be an Objectivist with these kinds of thinking. Are you? Just curious.

Sincerely Yours,
C. David Neely
