Canadian Politics Today

I'm fairly on board with the idea that the police are a flawed institution that will never accept any real accountability or reform.  The part I have a hard time wrapping my head around is how a world without the police would be safer for me or for the majority of the population.   If we disband the police, what happens afterwards?

I doubt this will be the end result and the original idea behind the term 'de-fund' alluded to diverting some of the money dedicated to policing to an alternative and supplemental force. Personally I think that should take the form of unarmed psychiatric first responders partnered with conventionally armed police.  People who are more accountable to health authorities than police.
