Well, I’d realistically suggest a slow strangle while we build up the alternative in tandem, maybe not “murder”, but I opted to use the wording of the poster I replied to.
What would the alternative be? I have never heard of a realistic solution that will be anywhere near the Overton Window and also backed up by data. Again, the last time Americans went without cops (CHAZ), it was a total disaster that “replaced” cops with people who did a far worse job when tasked with the same responsibilities.
I’m not criticizing your use of the word “murder.”
Re: murder, it was more a personal clarification hahah, murder implies a swift execution, versus a slow change.
I do not claim to have the solution. That’s outside of my area of expertise. What I can say is that the implementation of policing we have now is failing, and I’d rather move towards something new than spin my wheels now.
I can also say that, with how everything else in our society is organized, our current system of policing is probably the most practical. Any kind of change to it will likely be predicated on many other facets of society changing first or in tandem. I have no illusions that it’ll be an easy change.
People will not have any interest in going without law enforcement for X days/weeks/months/years while you reboot everything.
