RE: Pinkertons: The Hounds Of Hell Are Unleashed

in #history5 years ago (edited)

Howdy sir cryptoandcoffee! Been a rough week, internet went down so I took the week off basically. As far as the Pinkertons, when they are bigger criminals than the ones they are chasing then they cause more harm than good! lol.

They corrupted much of the law enforcement system by bribing, paying off and extorting people. Legitimate law enforcement was going to take care of the problem and in a lawful manner that built stronger relationships and cooperation among agencies, departments and governing bodies and that wouldn't destroy, harm or corrupt with the big money behind them like the Pinkertons had.

They aren't doing the same work today because they were too corrupt and lawless. Now they do some types of security work, like security guards and such.

Sort:  

Sorry about the internet that is always a bummer. I look forward to reading more about them. They may have been crooked themselves and overstepped the barriers, but if you get the job done it sometimes takes that.

yes sir cryptoandcoffee, I know what you mean and I agree that there are circumstances where that is called for and should probably be called for more ofen so that's a good point!
