    I'm assuming he's talking about early law enforcement as a precursor to modern policing. Slave patrols were often publically funded. Some localities were organized a bit more like the Pinkertons who also took bounties by tracking escaped slaves across state borders.

    Ah, so up until 1619 there were no police. Got it.

    Why do this? You're not being clever. We all know you're pretending to be ignorant to make bad faith arguments. There's just the one joke over and over again. I don't get it.

    Because if op likes to spread lies, why take it seriously?
    Instead if asking why you don't understand someone poking fun at a source, perhaps wonder what they are poking.
