@Stevo_the_gamer: So the police have a personal interest in people fearing the idea of extremist violence. I can see why you are promoting that fear.
Can you give us any more information on how police benefit financially?
Law enforcement have an invested interest instilling fear within the minds of the criminals (Unless it's a fellow officer) who believe they can loot, vandalize, assualt or intimidate others. All law enforcement salaries are of public record, feel free to research.
Added something to your statement. ;)
Silly goose, law enforcement doesn't have a vested interest in instilling fear within the minds of criminals. Sounds like you've been reading too much Batman or Judge Dredd. :P That implies you're judge, jury, and executioner, and clearly - and I hope not, for you sake - you're not suppose to be, nor should you. Because honestly, the last thing we need is incompetent cops dishing out law and order, assaulting innocent people on the streets, arresting and badgering innocent folk to confess to crimes they didn't commit because, you know, actual police work is hard. ;)
The purpose of law enforcement is to enforce the law by discovering, deterring, rehabilitating, and/or punishing people who violate the rules and norms of society. We should strive for that instead of maintaining our current system that... doesn't do any of that and does the other bad things I just mentioned.

Regardless who wins, they'll be some sort of violence and unfortunately so. Hopefully it subsides for the sake of this country. However, the situation we're currently isn't helping. We can't afford more malice from the current system we're in, otherwise, we might as well just be an another unstable country on the brink of collapse.
I hope Biden wins, but despite the polls, we've seen surprises like no other.
