They (and the people giving the orders) clearly have some amount of flexibility when it comes to enforcing them, because we saw that the George Floyd protests were allowed to proceed, and a couple of weeks ago the Glasgow Rangers footie fans had a big unlawful celebration and the police didn't do anything about it.
Yes.
Wilbur isn't technically wrong about enforcing the law. But i think we can read between the lines. The police protect their own. It is the secret oath they swear that supersedes the actually oath they swear to become officers. This makes pretty much every cop a tyrant and/or an accomplice to tyrants. Power and a paycheck corrupts.
To be clear: women in the UK are not saying "Defund the police". Quite the opposite. Women in the UK are asking "why aren't the police protecting us??" And to some degree the answer appears to be that budget cuts have reduced their ability to investigate and prosecute criminals.
Yes.
