Cops maybe far from perfect and so my be our system of laws, anarchism my work with educated, morally strong people like you and me that know stealing rap and killing is wrong. I don't need a law to tell me that but could you Imagine what the rest of America would be like? It would be like Detroit x100
Maybe you're right, I think I just get tired of hearing about the abysmal failures of the current system with no hope for a remedial fix for the situation. We are obliged to just tacitly accept the injustices enabled by the status quo and ignore it as if fucked up shit never happened. It's hard for a thinking man to take.
On the other hand, I like to think that water finds it's own level, and although an anarchist or even libertarian system would see shit fucked up for a while, over time it has the potential to develop it's own equilibrium. I just often wonder, surely alternate systems couldn't be much worse than the fucked up one we have now. I guess it all depends on how good the average person thinks the current system is, I see it as pretty lousy.
