Without proper law enforcement, the rule of law would mean nothing. There would be no one to protect you from harm and violence. Human beings are social creatures and tend to live in cities, towns and communities, where interaction between our peers is almost inevitable. Unfortunately, there will almost always be those who will not respect your rights as a human being, or will not fulfill their social, financial and moral responsibility as citizens. They will try to rob you, threaten you and take advantage of you. That requires the role of the police to be to enforce the law, catching or deterring people who would break the rules of the law, and to protect your rights as a citizen.

Without law enforcement, if someone wronged you, then you have to take that person yourself and bring them before the magistrate. Also, if he came home only to see that someone had broken in and stolen his belongings, without law enforcement, there would be no police detective to investigate. Furthermore, the rich and powerful may hire a detective agency to track down whoever has committed crimes, but the poor may have no one to protect if they have been victimized. If he has been hit by a car driven by a reckless driver, without law enforcement, they could take him down. Of course, that would be aggravating on your part. If the beer-gutted husband is hitting, hitting, or verbally abusing his wife, without law enforcement, the domestic violence could still continue, as law enforcement would not be there if the domestic violence was reported. . These are just a few of the many other violations that can be committed against you, but nonetheless, we cannot deny how important a role law enforcement plays in our society.

The rule of law identifies that your property is yours and therefore no one can enter your property and take it against your will. In addition, the rule of law also identifies that no person deserves to be discriminated against, be it because of their race, skin color, sex and gender, and that those who discriminate must be punished by the respective laws of the countries. Furthermore, it dictates that corrupt officials, rapists, murderers, and thieves must be punished. In addition, the rule of law recognizes that, as a citizen, you have a responsibility to fulfill, and that you also have rights that must be duly recognized, respected and protected by all means.
