Should the federal government forbid states from having a police force? If so why?

What is the difference between a police force and a standing army?

So your argument is that the federal government should control local police?

That would still be a standing army. There is not supposed to be a standing army.

Well they are not a standing army.

Right, they just look like one and act like one.
Both wear uniforms and carry weapons civilians are not allowed to have.

Prey tell, what is the difference between the two?

No it is my position that they are unneeded and unnecessary in a free society. And that a free people should not tolerate even the Idea of police.

I would like the very concept of police to vanish like the concept of the sun moon and stars revolving around the earth.
