The time is now for American libertarians to get together and publicly broadcast “the solution.” It is my belief that almost all long-time libertarians agree on this solution with perhaps slight variations. The internal debate is mostly in the practicality of the solution, not in the principles of the idea. And the idea of course is for voluntary and private police forces to compete freely with other private police forces whose sole job is to provide conflict resolution, peace, and protection1The Law – Frederick Bastiat https://fee.org/media/14951/thelaw.pdf and audio here https://mises.org/library/law-0 instead of filling state and private prisons with people who commit victimless crimes.
Anyone of us who already has a voice in the libertarian community2This person or group thereof could be anyone like Dr. Ron Paul, Dr. Thomas E Woods, Ben Swan, Scott Horton, Dave Smith, Anyone from Cato, “L” LP, Mises, FEE, AIER etc. This person(s) can be just known in libertarian circles and or in mainstream media. Let’s discuss! , and it does not matter who, has to step up to the plate, rally up a few handfuls of other libertarians3Some of the examples that come to mind are, Adam Kokesh (Ex-Marines), Dale Brown (Detroit threat management Center), and many more. with some police and military veterans to announce a startup or a franchise. We don’t need infrastructure, or money for that matter. A simple video and a landing page for contact information is all one would need. It is likely that upon the success of this idea, more startups will surface in the market. That’s a good thing because competition is the healthiest thing from the consumer perspective.
“How does a private police force work?” a non-libertarian or a newbie libertarian will ask. There is an incredible amount of literature already available from Murray Rothbard4https://mises.org/wire/privatize-policeto current day libertarians 5https://www.learnliberty.org/tag/police/ 6https://mises.org/search-mises?search=police,but I am going to highlight key points7It is my intent to revise this article as more relevant points are discussed amongst libertarians. below and you may do the same. Most importantly, the time is now to invite the “defund the police” movement, the skeptics, and the opposition to this discussion with our bullet proof ideas. Sure, it’s great we spend money on election campaigns, movies, and such but let us all spend $5 to advertise our policing idea to the world so we can get in the middle of the debate and offer frugal and effective solutions. Plus, it never hurts to spread the ideas of liberty.
Here are some of the key point’s below:
There is a lot more that can be said in support to the above, but I realize I’d be preaching to the choir. Any one of us can hold a debate on this subject, so I would just conclude by saying this: we have done a lot of talk but the time is now to start the process and lead by example. Do not let the opportunity slip away.

Pete, what a hollow threat. First of all, good riddance, so how’s that a threat? But second of all, they don’t mean it at all, the tax-parasites. Get real jobs? Retire at 65 instead of 50? Sure.
I know. Let’s test it and see what they can put up with.
Aww, if you can’t kill people with no repercussions you’re gonna quit?
Learn to code, bitches!
This is what happens when you call the cops:
Cops shoot man to death, claim he was trying to take one of their guns, an obvious lie.
Dear Senator, we like it very much when you do good things. Sincerely, Everybody

Sen. Rand Paul (R) Kentucky, proposed to make this a nationwide ban in one of the most unprecedented anti-police state moves we’ve ever seen.
“After talking with Breonna Taylor’s family, I’ve come to the conclusion that it’s long past time to get rid of no-knock warrants. This bill will effectively end no-knock raids in the United States,” Paul said.
As Axios reports, Paul introduced a bill on Thursday that would prohibit federal law enforcement and local police that receive federal funding from entering homes without warning through a “no-knock” warrant, which was reportedly obtained by the officers that shot Louisville resident Breonna Taylor in her home on March 13.
I wonder if the Black Lives Matter people have a new effort focusing on banning SWAT Team night raids…!
Oh.
Launching a new hashtag — suburban women against Trump. #SWAT. Everyone is welcome. Including city, rural, suburban, island, expat. Inclusive of everybody. Though “suburban women” is Republican code for white women, this hashtag is for everyone who wants to vote Trump out.
