Hello. Terribly sorry my French is so bad, and I have to write in English.

I haven't read the article you're referring to yet, but I thought I'd comment about this post.

We want them to arrest Bernie Madoff wannabes, a mob boss, a child molester, a serial killer, someone waving a knife at a crowd, hatecrime thugs, etc.

But let's replace the institution Why?: Their concern for property over people; the rightwing hate towards everyone who doesn't look like cis het gentile neoliberal/centre-right wealthy #Macron...demonising the marginalised; putting out the eyes of protesters and attacking journalists during une manif; killercops, etc.

The original purpose of the institution has never evapourated: Protect the elite/the entrenched and their property from... those who are not as fortunate and from the children of the elite who don't want to perpetuate elitism.

That institutional mentality never went away. Doesn't matter how many women, LGBTQ+ people, POCs, etc the police hire, the institution remains the same and often cops who are POCs, Jews, LGBTQ+, Muslims, and women are targeted by their colleagues.

So, we need a practical sensible way to #DefundThePolice, and #REPLACEThePolice with something BETTER.
