I absolutely promise you if law enforcement ceased to exist tomorrow our society would collapse.
There are a SHIT TON of criminals out there and WAY MORE people who are currently law abiding citizens that would become criminals if there were no police around.
This isn’t really debatable. Law enforcement is necessary. Always has been. We just have horrible standards for law enforcement in the U.S. and have a culture that promotes bad behavior from them. And those standards can vary wildly from jurisdiction to jurisdiction. You can have a law enforcement agency that’s generally solid at their jobs with little to no corruption, and right next door in the next county you can have a shitstain agency that fucks everything up and is awful at their jobs.
The question isn’t whether or not we should have law enforcement. It’s how do we hold them to higher standards and punish them approprietly for their crimes?
