The riot to reform police thread

[MakeItRain]

The schedule for completing bank robberies is about to get a lot more lax

Cops aren't a deterrent for bank robberies, if so they would have ended roughly 150 years ago.

Is this sarcasm?

[MakeItRain]

Are we abolishing speed limit signs as well?

Radars/cameras could do that job.

Why would anyone who likes to speed have a license plate on their car anymore?

You can't be this rough ridin' stupid.

How often does an on duty police officer stop an in progress bank robbery? Why do you think banks use dye packs, security guards, locking gates, close circuit cameras, etc.? You think all that is necessary because cops are effective deterrents from robbing banks?

So, your statement is that police are not a deterrent to bank robery because banks still get robbed? I did you the courtesy of asking if you were being sarcastic, because I don't know you to be a disingenuous crap-for-brains moron.

If you’re going to be racing around, take off your plates, it’s not that hard.  There is no one to pull you over and cameras can’t identify your car.  What I’m suggesting is perfectly plausible.  You sound dumb.

Interesting that you used the term disingenuous, given you haven't rough ridin' said a thing. The spirit of kim carnes disingenuous crap-for-brains hypothetical is that without cops on the street bank robberies would be out of control. Did I hit my head and all of a certain Barney Doughnuts are stopping bank robberies all over the place? Bank robbers are almost always apprehended after the fact. No one is calling for the end of all law enforcement, I'm sure bank robbery rates and arrests in Camden, NJ are no different than other like sized cities.

You're too shook about the possibility of not having a police state to consider common sense.

Well, I mean, the most recent bank robbers I can name are Bonnie and Clyde, so...

It means a city has the county sherriff's office do all the traditional police work.

I was wondering how long they were going to have that conversation without any of them actually using Google.

Google is what took me to the only self described “defund the police” plan I could find, which said, roughly, “we’ll have a plan in a year or so.”

Cops are probably abandoning their precinct where it’s bonkers every night.

The FBI, specifically Keanu Reeves, handles bank robberies.

Radars/cameras could do that job.

Expanding the red light camera model seems like a recipe for success.

Gah, eff that

man, this thread really became tangent-city here the last 5 or so pages.

Idea: refund the police

Thoughts?

[chum1]

Put the police into a rocket and then launch the rocket into the sun.

[Spracne]

Pay them more under the guise that higher wages will attract better candidates. Bonus is it would really piss off teachers.

[MakeItRain]

It's the next step. The riots are over and how many more videos of cops shooting people in the face with rubber bullets do we need to see?

Is this Miami bike cop thing a comedy bit or something?

This dude is notoriously full of crap.

The Seattle police's report of what Fernandez told them includes that Fernandez claimed to have a brother who works at the east precinct and claimed to be scared for his life.  The cops have not figured out what/who he's talking about re: a brother and have called bullshit on him being scared for his life.

For example:

She responded by again emphasizing her belief that abolishing the police cannot happen in a capitalist society, and used the moment to push for a socialist system.

"I absolutely am fighting for a society free of racism, free of sexual violence, free of police — but that will only happen when we fight capitalism," she said.
