Look, I hate police unions as much as you do, but cops don't stop being workers just because you hate them. Do unionized Trump voters and racists and guys who beat their wives stop being workers, too?
Is the Crown a worker too? The reason Responders and military are not workers is because they serve the rich. They are not the proles, they are on the other side of class.
I bet King George didn't stop "working."
You think there is a "benign" "small" "local" government as opposed to a big bad one? Have you ever heard of Fusion Centers? Do you know the IDF military trains US cops often? Do you know big parts of local government were in the military before they became a department? You don't just stop being a former Pentagon collateral murderer.
Wow. When people say "beggaring the question", this is what they mean.
No question is begged. I don't think you understand that idiom. Explain. "Is" is a typo though.
