no. it isn't. it's implying that our police don't keep our communities safe and our prisons aren't adequate deterrents or rehabilitation centers. a better solution to community safety would be a society that doesn't enforce poverty. within that framework we need the imagination to find community oriented solutions to investigating and punishing people who encroach on the safety, liberty, and autonomy of others.
