The assumption here being that courts do nothing ever and that the justice system doesn’t exist.
Seems ignorant and reductive but I’m not an expert
The courts absolutely do something. My point is that most of the damage is done before it reaches the court.
Cops don't arrest cops or people on their team. But when they do, prosecutors don't charge cops. Cops do arrest nonviolent protestors. Prosecutors do charge nonviolent protestors. Later those charges are dropped, or they're set free with an agreement not to sue the department, or occasionally there's a settlement, that taxes pay for.
Thank you for elaborating. It makes your point much more clear.
I want to abolish prison, then police, personally.
The courts are unreliable due to corruption, and we do not have a functioning justice system.
So you're saying you haven't been paying attention. Must be nice to be so privileged you don't have to worry about it.
You sound like a very pleasant person who is focused on their own self improvement. Long road ahead?
