    You have a very naive understanding of the function that police performs in our society - I’m going to go ahead and guess that you are not aware of the history of policing? Spoiler alert - it is drenched in the ideology of white supremacism and the politics of colonialism and class warfare.

      I’m not concerned with the history of it, so much as their intended task in current times.

      There’s a LOT of things that have horrific history, just look at America in general. There are no living persons from those years still living, though we’re still working on getting rid of the mentalities that some had, from current generations. They’re generally a minority

        I’m not concerned with the history of it,

        Then you have a serious problem - if you don’t want to understand the history of policing, you will never understand their function now because it’s still the exact same function.
