    I’ve heard it called a luxury issue by some. As in an issue that privileged people take up because they already have the privilege of safety and order.

    I mean yeah cops disproportionately target certain groups of people. Their training sucks and has the added bonus of making them trigger happy schizos who see crime and offence where it doesn’t exist. But also I think it’s pretty obvious that there needs to be some sort of law enforcement/peace keeping group.

    Police reform? I can get behind that. Abolishing police? Sounds kinda dumb.
