Do you believe the current version of policing in America can be successfully reformed? Can the current officers be sufficiently re-trained? Who is going to patrol the streets until that happens?
When people say abolish the police, they are saying that the current system has to be entirely dismantled and replaced. You actually appear to agree with the end objective.
If that’s what they mean then they’re terribly miscommunicating, because they’re literally saying something completely different.
Not really. “Abolish the police [as they currently exist]” is just step 1.
It can. Every act of oppression, bigotry, racism, homophobia, xenophobia and misogyny comes from one particular profile of cop. Conservative. Remove conservatives from policing and those issues stop almost completely.
There are a few good cops and every single one of them is a progressive.
While we’re at it would you guys like to be in control of the military, schools, and the media too?
Only if there is a problem with oppression of vulnerable groups in those places.
Conservatives can’t resist oppressing vulnerable people. That’s just who they are at their core.
No, I would like them to not be in control of the military, schools and the media. There’s a difference.
