I've always wondered why cops don't train as philosophers; this would certainly disarm a perp: "What is the meaning of life!" "I give up!" perp starts crying in existential anguish; cop gives the guy a cup of coffee & cigarette. instead of tickets they'd be standing around writing poetry about traffic; engaging passerby w/ conundrums; maintaining the status quo of the republic; in contrast to the Dionysian criminals [if **** were the only crime] theft, ****** & betrayal a way of life; sanctioned by the class struggle -
