Once we are well behaved enough, prisons and police won't be needed. That depends on our spiritual evolution. It could take centuries or millennia.

Well, they're obviously doing it so what are you doing about it to stop it?  If are unable to do anything about it or stop it then what do you expect us to do about it to stop it or deal with it when it becomes our problem to address and resolve in our areas. I was recently on a fishing trip with an old country boy ( Evil Redneck). According to him, there's a lot of places to dispose of bodies out in the country. I'm sorry but your side doesn't seem to be as well behaved as the other side these days or anytime in the past.

I don't think the blue cities and counties are abolishing police and prisons. That's just what some on the left advocate. No, there are districts in our cities that are not well-behaved, so that's why we will keep the police and the prisons. We just want to reform them so they don't cause more harm than good, and don't cause and perpetrate crimes instead of carrying out and enforcing the law. We want funds directed to services that help people too, instead of just shooting and choking them to death. You seem to object to this. 

I guess you'd like to build a jail wall around blue cities, as well as around our country. You want us all to be armed to the teeth too. But guns, walls and jails are not keeping the virus out, and they don't keep crime out either. In general and as a whole, red states have more crime and violence than blue ones, and they are reaping the results of their unwillingness to act about the virus too now, as well as reaping the results of their stupid attitudes about crime and violence as they always have.

Dude, I don't care if the liberals running Berkeley and the liberals who live there decide to cut their armed police force budget in half and use the other half to fund unarmed social workers/ peacekeepers who aren't nearly as well trained in self defense or the use of firearms and end up regretting doing it or going along with it down the road. I assume they're about as wise and as sharp as the liberals that I see in congress and the ones seen on TV and the ones on the internet these days. I don't live there and I don't have to pay for their mistakes. Dude, we are going to functioning as separate countries within a decade or so anyway. So, who gives a fuck about what the liberals are doing and messing with in their areas at this point.
