WHEN POLICE (NOT ELECTED SHERIFFS) ARE USED AS AMBULANCE CHASERS AND ROAD PIRATES FOR REVENUE GENERATION PURPOSES - WE HAVE TOO MANY COPS. WHEN THOSE EMPLOYEES PRACTICE LAW WITHOUT A LICENSE BY GENERATING OFFERS TO CONTRACT WITHOUT FULL DISCLOSURE, WITHOUT ANY INJURED PARTY OR CRIME REPORTED - WE HAVE A POLICE STATE.
WHEN MEMBERS OF THE LEGISLATIVE BRANCH THINK "DEBT CREATION" SOLELY TO GENERATE "DEBT COLLECTION" FOR RECYCLED/LAUNDERING OF FUNDS THAT BENEFIT THE PATENTED GAMING SYSTEM CALLED "DISTRICT COURTS" THE LAWYERS USE TO "DO BUSINESS" - THEY ARE AIDING AND ABETTING A MONOPOLY.

THE CITIZENRY ARE NOT GOVERNMENT'S LOTTERY TICKETS TO PLAY CASINO.
THE GOVERNMENT ONLY EXISTS AT THE PLEASURE OF THE PEOPLE.
GET YOUR ROLES RIGHT - POLICE ARE PRIVATELY AND INDIVIDUALLY LIABLE FOR EVERY ACT - THEY ENGAGE IN UNDER COLOR OF LAW -
AND TODD GILBERT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED OR DISBARRED FOR EVEN CONSIDERING THIS BILL...THEN AGAIN, HE PROBABLY GETS KICKBACKS ELSEWHERE FOR VIOLATING THE SEPARATION OF POWERS DOCTRINE DAILY AS A LEGISLATOR.
