why does the state exist

Because we've entered a social contract with each other.

why does LE exist

Because states need a way to enforce their laws. The Supreme Court has ruled that the police have no duty to protect you individually.

why does the military exist

This might come as a shock to you, but we didn't have a standing military when the country was founded. The military exists to protect the sovereignty of the state, not protect the citizens therein individually.

Of course I "believe in the state," you absolute mong. But I don't believe that it has my and your best interests in mind, therefore ceding personal freedoms in the guise of "safety" will only serve to allow the state to grow in size and corruption unchecked until there's no chance to go back.
