‎”Statists believe in the fantasy of the “super citizen”: that somehow holding elected office or wearing a badge or uniform makes certain citizens more honest, honorable, intelligent and capable than other citizens - able to bear arms, protect and serve better than the rest and with a magical intelligence and authority giving them the ability to decide what is best for everyone else.

The flaw is that not only are the “super citizen” police and politicians not superior in morality than the rest of us, they are sadly sometimes the worst of what our society has to offer. “
