OK. All you've done is restate your original statement. Saying it's crap is the same thing as saying it doesn't work for you, only in slightly stronger words. Adding that it doesn't work for you to the end of that doesn't add anything either.

The points of the analogy were that first of all, sometimes people have more than one role. I'm sure you have no problem agreeing with this bit.

The second part is that some roles are by nature, unsavoury. Like the scammer on the phone, or like the man with the big stick employed to keep the starving wretches away from the grainstore. This doesn't necessarily mean the scammer or stickman are bad people, but in carrying out this role, they act in a bad way. Do you understand this, and if so, can you accept that the role of the police is sometimes to protect the interests of a tiny minority, against the greater good?
