    any society will need some form of policing, we can only argue on how it should be structured.

    however, we can’t forget that the biggest factor for crime is poverty, once people aren’t desperate for basic material needs, crime drops.

    so any crime remediation that focuses mostly on policing is bound to only enforce a class division and is inherently regressive.

      policing needs to be done with the utmost accountability to the people. the US system of cops are just a gang that will execute anyone they feel like and suffer no consequences it’s hardly what i would call policing in any real sense of the word.
