On a side note, and slightly off topic.
I am disappointed to see this thread has been up for almost a whole day and has attracted so little attention. This is ATS a conspiracy site, when a bunch of guys emerge claiming to be part of something called the Masonic Fraternal Order of Peace" it should go right up to the top of the front page! Sometimes I think all of the political and grandiose conspiracies along with all the stuff marked "off-topic" really distracts from what ATS really should be about.
Its a shame threads like this disappear as they descend down the "recent posts" page into the vastness of the ATS waste land.

..... Now for “protecting themselves”, everyone seeks to protect their butts and in an organizational sense it’s no different, nor is that a bad thing. Even the cops need to ensure they are protected from petty accusations and charges, but it does become an issue if they protect "meat eaters", the bad apples among the barrel.
H.R. 378 (Honda, D-CA), the "Responsible Body Armor Possession Act," which would prohibit the sale, transfer, or possession of enhanced, military-grade body armor by civilians;
H.R. 814 (Jolly, R-FL), the "Thin Blue Line Act," which would increase the penalty for offenders who kill or attempt to kill law enforcement or other public safety officers;
H.R. 1186 (Thornberry, R-TX), the "Synthetic Abuse and Labeling of Toxic Substances (SALTS) Act," which would close the existing loophole for the manufacturers on analogue drug sales and distribution;
H.R. 46 (Jackson-Lee, D-TX), the "No More Tulias: Drug Law Enforcement Evidentiary Standards Improvement Act," which would significantly limit States who fund anti-drug task forces from receiving Federal funding from the Edward J. Byrne Memorial Justice Assistant Grants program;
H.R. 429 (Johnson, D-GA), the "Grand Jury Reform Act," which would end the use of grand juries to evaluate the conduct of any death caused by a law enforcement officer acting in the performance of his sworn duty and require a special prosecutor to take the case before a judge;
H.R. 923 (Stutzman, R-IN), the "Constitutional Concealed Carry Reciprocity Act," which would allow any civilian concealed carry permit holder to travel to any other State issuing concealed carry permits without any training or safety requirements;
H.R. 1933 (Conyers, D-MI), the "End Racial Profiling Act," which would define "racial profiling" as any consideration of race, national origin or ethnic origin to initiate a traffic stop or vehicle search absent an eyewitness description and requires the collection of race and other data by State and local law enforcement during routine investigatory activities;
Legislation or amendments that would have the effect of weakening P.L. 106-185, the "Civil Asset Forfeiture Reform Act of 2000";
Legislation which would create or fund "civilian review boards" of law enforcement at any level of government; and
Legislation which would normalize relations with Cuba until that nation ceases to be a safe harbor for cop-killers and other fugitives
Why do the police oppose drug reform laws?

Thank you captain obvious. You mason types get all bent out of shame when you perceive someone spreading anti-mason beliefs.
The reality is most police act like a fraternity, a brotherhood where they cover up each others crimes, and treat those who are not part of their click as inferiors.
This is apparent when one spends some time with off duty police officers or just check out the hidden police only forums on Police One.
It is truly an us versus them mentality that many police officer possess.
That said, they police have important job. Having the respect and support of the citizens is vital for them to do their job.
The problem here is the citizens are rapidly loosing faith in the police organizations. This is largely due to the abuse of power by the police departments and the legal system in general.

Wasn't America founded by Masons?
Isn't the current police force rogue?

They're freeing their being from what? They can't even begin to be free, they're still in hellish lower frequency as murderers and slavers and there is no washing that blood out while they have any right at all to ensnare others. They are not top dog in infinity, diminished soul is not = to progressed expanded loving soul, therefore they are tiny gnats in a testube.
And that means people will be freed and they'll be seen as a danger to self and others and be hauled off for many more lessons until they grow a heart themselves.
The students are far more important than the mechanism they're in.
Thats the whole thing, Love would never abandon anyone ever. Knowing what Love is means might does not make right, or rather the Highest Power is Love and so all will turn out well.
