Compare what happens in China when a rogue cop kills a community member to what the typical American community does, then apply that to what COULD happen to their government if it didn't have the support of it's billion citizens regarding almost anything...
lolwut - where do you get the idea that the chinese govt is supported by its subjects?
I didn't say, nor do I have any way of knowing what percentage of China's citizens are 100% happy with the government. I did imply if their government crossed them, a billion... Even 10% of a billion, is a lot of people to try to stop.
Including internet surveillance. Meanwhile Americans don't support that sort of surveillance of themselves... or maybe they support it as much as chinese subjects do - that is to say, the 'support' varies a lot depending on who you ask.
as a side note
" a rogue cop kills"
all cops are rougue by defintion. A proposition that should be self-evident to any self-described 'anarchist'...
As I understand it there are bad cops and complicit silent ones. My bad... Should have used the term primary-suspect-in-murder cop (as opposed to accomplice), but too wordy. If you read the piece you'll note they also tore his accomplice limb from limb and stuffed hi in their squad car too, before torching it. Rr
But prefer to remain ignorant of it.
