    Well yeah: more cops means more arrests, which means more prisoners, which means more slave labor.

    Remember the 13th Amendment:

    Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

    No sarcasm tag necessary; that’s what conservatives genuinely want.
