                How is this supposed to convince us that law enforcement is not a necessary part of civil society?

                But I'd rather be a fool in the eyes of man
                Than a fool in the eyes of God

                  It's not. it's exactly the opposite which is what those doing it want.

                    Perhaps that wasn't the intent.
