23 year old Janet Topper comes home after a long day being yelled at by her boss undeservedly and wants nothing more than to just have a bath and watch Lost reruns when she finds 7 rough tough biker thugs in her home, armed to the teeth with guns, knives and chains.

They toss her out like a bad habit, spit on her, claim the building is theirs now and tell her to fuck off or they will shoot her

What the hell is she supposed to do?

Call a Social Worker.

We will need to sit these people down and have a conversation. Find out what the roots of their problems are. Discuss how we can improve things in their life. There must be a reason!

The biker thugs will come together and listen in harmony.

She comes in with a gun and all that happens is her home is repainted with her brains

Probably one of the only scenarios in which police would be the right people for the job. Not for domestic disputes, not for mental illness, etc.

I don't think anyone is advocating for police free zones but hundreds of thousands if not millions are advocating for the complete removal of the police force which would just become police free zones.

This is right. No need to go to extremes like "no police" or "abusive police".

no one is advocating that they remove protection for civilians

they just want to remove an inherently racist and overbloated government funded faction and replacing it with a community advocacy group .

I think it's one part a situation where certain people who advocate for those kinds of extremes aren't living in reality, and the world is shades of competing ideals.

And the other part is people who don't benefit from and are often directly threatened by that institution. I'm not talking about criminals, I'm talking about people who are treated like criminals because of their socioeconomic status. What good are police doing for you if you're a poor black guy who gets frequently harassed for living your life? I worked with a guy like that who was borderline mentally handicapped with a low IQ. Police frequently stopped him because he looked "off", and he wound up being frequently bounced around the court system for missing pointless court dates when he could barely read or write or possibly have any way of keeping that schedule. He liked to talk tough, but he was a sweetheart who would give you the shirt off his back if he thought you needed it. What the fuck good did the police ever do for him? That's his reality.

Property owner? You benefit from the police and the state having a monopoly on violence. That's not an appropriate reference to phrase this question.

This actually happened to my friend when he was little. Armed men broke his familys door down without warning and rushed into the house. Babies crying, little kids screaming in terror, these armed men threw them all to the ground while constantly screaming obscenities at them and piling all over the adults and children alike.

Then they put about half the family, including some of the children, in handcuffs and took them to the station.

When we say "abolish the police" that doesn't mean we want to abolish the police. When we say we're envisioning a future of our city without police that doesn't mean there won't be police in our city in the future. When we say we don't want any more police that doesn't mean we want the police to go away.

way to cut off the vast majority of his post. no. when we say we want to reform the police it means we dont believe the way they currently function is the proper way they should in a modern society. FFS look at every other developed nation; none of them are terrorized by their police the way we are, yet they still manage to maintain public safety.
