We’re not calling for that. We want to attempt to prevent crime, instead of merely suppressing it with police force. We want to take away money from our insanely large and wasteful police budgets, and hire more social workers, mental health specialists, more teachers, and invest more in disadvantaged communities.
It’s honestly not our fault that many police have decided to turn their back on Americans. They really enjoyed harassing and endangering minorities and communities for decades, and now they are faced the reality that we won’t stand for that any longer.
I think if we make a combination of swift short-term changes, and well planned long term changes, we could create a better system of policing and criminal justice in this country. Of course that’s asking way too much of Americans, so there is the possibility that shit hits the fan somewhere down the line for a number of reasons.
