We The People

Published by simon on September 13, 2008

There’s a reason you separate military and the police. One fights the enemies of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people.

Commander William Adama, Battlestar Galactica

In light of the current state of affairs, I can’t help but be reminded by Adama words above, I believe rockybru quoted it in his blog before, too.

Anyone who follows the reimagined Battlestar Galactica will know Bill Adama as leader who is fearless, fiercely loyal, and unflinchingly moral. But sadly for us in the real life here, we do not have a commander anything like Adama.

May the Lords of Kobol have mercy on us.
