Slave patrols originated in 1704 in south Carolina, but we are just debating the actual terminology here. They are the same type of criminal organization by the state - its centralized authority to murder and cage another human being for profit. By that definition nothing has changed. Once you give authority control, they never give it back. Hence ICE, SWAT and modern police corruption- all insane people that justify killing for miney under the guise of protection.
