minus-square@Potatos_are_not_friends@lemmy.worldlinkfedilink2•edit-27 months agoYeah I absolutely would. I rather have unarmed security guards protecting neighborhoods. I rather have trained armed swat teams when there’s a major assault happening. I rather have professional detectives doing investigations. I rather have expert specialists do wellness checks. Right now, those four are under the police force, and they solve everything with a gun. Police as a whole is a giant blob of unmanaged corruption.
