law enforcement should be structured into different groups with different priorities; traffic, crisis, drug addiction, etc. almost none of which should be armed

law enforcement dealing with violent and dangerous crime would still exist, but they would not be pulling people over and shooting them like they are now

The maybe they shouldn't be demanding the police be defunded and abolished. Work on their messaging.

Disbanding a police department doesnt mean they cant make a new one. Idk why people dont understand this. It just lets them get rid of all the bad cops at once and start over with new leadership

Because they aren't saying rebuild, restructure, replace, etc. They're saying abolish. Which means to so away with completely. Which has a heavy connotation of permanence.

All police departments should be defunded IMMEDIATELY and replaced with non-violent, community based de-escalation and counseling forces on a volunteer basis. NOW.

The whole idea is that we've always put police in charge of things they shouldn't be in charge of. Police are intended to enforce the law, but like 90% of their job is just conflict resolution and we can send people who are better equipped for that.

I agree with this. I saw a long fb post basically saying "abolish the police doesn't mean abolish the police..." and then goes on to blame people who think abolish the police means abolish the police for not having an extensive dialogue with the people hash tagging it to understand what they meant. And im just thinking, pick a better hash tag then. Geez.

Abolish the police doesn't mean abolish the police. When community leaders talk about a future without police they don't mean there won't be police in the future. When someone says, "We don't want any more police" that doesn't mean they want to get rid of the police. Read a book sweaty, learn some theory. It's not my job to educate you.

Well considering the fact that theyre disbanding the current police department, NOT abolishing police altogether forever I dont know why anyone is even using the word abolish at all

It's just stupid conservatives being stupid conservatives and taking things with a literal meaning.

Anyone with an IQ over 30 understands you have to have some sort of police force

I think the most common scenario where police officers are shot are during traffic stops because they can't see when someone has their hand on a weapon. That's why you're supposed to put your hands on the steering wheel and in view of the officer pulling you over.

Cops freak out when they see a gun that someone didn't mention because they don't know why they have it. Whenever a weapon is spotted the driver is immediately taken out of the car so that way nothing can happen.

Now shooting as soon as you see a gun instead of being rational about it is something that probably shouldn't happen...
