    I think my parents did a fine job, when me and my brothers were little we would play ‘crips and bloods’ how kids play ‘cops and robbers’ but none of us wanted to play as a cop.

    May I ask, how do you want to keep criminality under control? I’m genuinely curious. Do you just let it be? Do you educate people? Do you create some separate unit to police?

    Like I understand when one is let’s say dissatisfied with police. But in my opinion the solution isn’t to let it be. And definitely not to form some para-military organization. Reform the police, have one group in country to keep order. If the group doesn’t work, fix it.

    But that’s just my point of view, I’m curious to read your’s

      Nobody advocated removing the police. The meme only says that currently they’re basically organized crime. So your question seems more like sealioning or JAQing off.

      Ok, I’d say: Education and democratic involvement.

      You sleep in the bed that you make. People don’t shit where they sleep.

      When people make the laws, people won’t break the laws.

      Agreed! ONLY COPS can PREVENT CRIME! Social Safety Nets to lift people out of poverty and ensure they have access to food, water, shelter, education and OPPORTUNITIES do NOT Prevent Crimes! ONLY COPS who solve under 50% of their cases and kill unarmed children dogs and hostages CAN! So we NEED to give Cops MORE money while taking it away from ANY and ALL Social Safety Nets!

      I just love how you get downvoted just for asking an honest question with no clear malice or derision. Peak Internet.

      You bring shame back. Ostracization from the group. You don’t give your attention or time to little shit disturbers… if it’s an extreme crime like fucking kids or murdering people for fun, you eradicate the issue.

        No, no death penalty.

        What happens if you catch the wrong “murderer”?

        What recourse do they have to fight for their innocence and freedom if gaoled?

          Well if we lived in a society where I lived in a place where I knew Mark for his whole entire life…we should know how Mark lives… if Mark started murdering people or fucking kids, one would assume the community at whole would know that Mark is the one who is murdering people or fucking kids… murderers and pedophiles and people who do problematic things within a society should be spotted early on… that’s where Community is important… the community should know it’s people, and it should know when it’s people do weird or bad things, and it’s Community should know how to reorient bad thinking into good behavior… and if they don’t adhere to good behavior they should be eradicated.

            Yeah life ain’t that simple mate.

            Communities don’t always know what goes on behind closed doors or in the dead of the night.

            Take a monster like Fritzl, small community, multiple tenants renting in his house over decades, no one knew a thing for 24 years.

              Oh yeah people knew a thing… people just didn’t say a thing… guaranteed people knew a thing …he didn’t live alone in his fucking house for 24 years.

              If you’re a monster and you’re completely alone, then sure… be a monster alone… but if you’re trying to be in a society, people will know you are a monster, and there is a choice to be made.

              It’s straight up is that simple. Don’t be a complete monster, and live on planet Earth… if you’re just here to destroy everything… first of all why? And if there’s no good reason… and you can’t be swayed, then go away. Period.
