You overlooked those that operate without Contractor's Licenses or continue to operate with suspended licenses. Of course there are none of those out there.
Some are great contractors who don't believe in having someones permission to operate in their trade. Who believe in the constitutionality of contract and that the state has no business in peoples private affairs.
The analogy is a poor analogy and I have broke it down before. Private contractors or business people who do these things don't usually last long, or their reputation spreads quickly and only those like them use them. Yes there are dirt bag contractors. But you can't compare a productive part of society to those making their living off of those who are producing, en
forceing political agendas and laws that have often become a joke. Like your aforementioned need for them to be licensed. Trust me licensing has nothing to do with competency. And the requirements often put good folks out of business if they have a poor year.
And like I have written before the "bad apple" argument holds no water with me. And some of the LEO who post on these forums prove it, with their unilateral support of cops. Where is the outrage that their brothers in blue, "just ended" a situation that could have ended without shooting the guy? Where is the outrage when they shoot a native woodcarver? Where is the outrage at all the illegal detentions that have been reported here? Instead you get accusations that the violated, must have had a bad attitude and that effected their "inter reaction", This is unfounded demagoguery, second SO What! Be professional, second if they don't violate them their wouldn't be attitudes. That's like declaring "she deserved to be raped, she dressed and acted like a slut". Where is the outrage when they "beat the Mexican piss" out of innocent men? Why will they refuse to address the problem of perjury that runs rampant among them? Why are they for the militarization of a "civilian" police force? Why do they support unconstitutional laws? And often lobby for them?
When contractors lie or violate ethical rules most contractors will immediately out them and not want to associate themselves with them. We are the first to out the liars and scum bags. And we are outraged when we hear about people who had poor service or were treated badly and we are not afraid to publicly announce this outrage. You simply cannot say the same about the largest street gang in America now can you?
I am not anti LEO. I am for restructuring and limiting their powers to well with in constitutional boundaries.
