You're living a very sheltered life if you believe cops and punishment are a big deterrent to crime. I've been involved in criminal activity. Never for a second did I or any of the people around me go "hey the cops might get us!!!!!!!".
Why don't states and nations with death penalty have the lowest crime rates?

You're right. People aren't naturally criminals. A criminal is only a "criminal" if he breaks the law. But if all cops quit tomorrow, "laws" would be a fantasy. It would just be a free-for-all survival of the fittest. It would be beautiful, I'm sure. I'm sure all the struggling people and greedy people would voluntarily just follow the previous laws and be respectful to their fellow copless citizens. Right?
