    This one was a gut punch. Going through all that and then seeing the same stuff rising again. Then saying fuck the virus, take me down there anyway....

    I still have my original Body Count CD that 12 year old me bought before some people in this thread were alive. Holy shit if he held a Body Count benefit concert for BLM right now

    I assume this is in preparation for the confederate monument being torn down, which is approximately 50 feet from the arch in downtown Athens. Would love to hear the reasoning behind it, because that looks awful.

    This was at the University of Cincinnati today. The police actually assisted stopping traffic for the march that followed.

    Nothing was closed or cordoned off.

    While this video is hilarious is their actual ask to not have any police at all? Or is this just poorly-explained police reform?

    I think some are going so far as saying we need no police at all. I don't agree with that. It needs a complete overhaul but we do need police.

    The idea of abolishing the police is not crazy, but it’s sort of disingenuous to say it’s full abolishment when you hear someone actually construct a policy around it.

    In every form I’ve seen there are still armed responders but they only respond to violent acts.

    This is cool but if I think I’m going to be getting in an altercation with the police at a rally I’d likely turn off Siri.

    Also for anyone that doesn’t know better, disable finger print or Face ID and make sure you have a phone password and not 4-6 digit pin.

    We need cops. We don’t need a hyper-militarized force of undereducated and undertrained half wit racists that try to live out their Call of Duty fantasies every time they respond to a call.

    Police can use fingerprints and face ID to unlock your phone but the password is protected by the 5th amendment*. A pin can be cracked.

    *this hasn't been ruled on by the supreme court to my knowledge

    There is a role for peace keepers but they need to be in their role. How do you answer armed crimes, mass shootings, domestic assaults. Abolishing the police sounds great but it needs to be replaced with a service that can provide those arrest and security services.

    to expand on this, yes you could defund the police and plow more money into prevention services, but prevention won’t be 100% successful so there will still be a need for someone to “police”.

    guys it's the same thing as ACAB, it's a statement that hyper makes you aware that the entire system is broken so reform isn't possible

    it has to be abolished and built from the ground up to fit the goals the community needs, isn't it single digit or low teen calls are regarding violence? our system is designed around fighting war with the population not protecting it

    like maybe there's one ANCAP out there who thinks private security firms can replace all community policing needs

    Old but this guy should write the book on how cops should interact with citizens. His part about not looking down on people is key imo.

    Her exact words were "We don't want no more police." He said he didn't support completely abolishing the police. She told him to gtfo.

    I agree it needs to be stripped down and rebuilt from the ground up with a new purpose. It doesn't seem like that's what she was advocating.
