We get it, you hate and want to abolish the police.

Actually the leadership hates the police probably even more than the public. There's a reason union presidents in the NYPD were embezzling a million dollars in union funds and there has been no contract update in six years. Corruption. Just look up former SBA union president Ed Mullins. Keep the cops submissive and salty so they resent the public instead of looking inward.

So glad you understand that the runaway slave catchers of yesteryear, who became the police is an unloved and unwanted entity 85% of the time. Your are wanted in situations of danger, when called, only.

And let's be honest, cops are barely competent when you do have to call them when in actual danger or victim of a crime.

Cops descending from runaway slave catchers is a false narrative created by the media to promote racial hate. The concept of a police force goes back to the earliest civilizations, as all peoples have needed a non military force to enforce the societies laws and the peace among peoples.

In fact, back in medieval times, a lot of adventurers would become cops after something happened to them like taking an arrow to the knee.
