    You can’t build much with 2 bricks, so maybe I’ll throw both

    I’m genuinely curious; What do people that hate all cops think would be a better alternative?

      The root of the problem is police culture and using police to handle situations that they aren’t trained for. People who say ACAB are referring to how current police organizations tend to fire whistle blowers and protect officers who abuse their power.

      Unarmed social workers, unarmed investigators, better social safety nets, community. Most of what you think we need police for wouldn’t be necessary in a socialist and especially communist future when people have their needs met. Modern policing started in the 19th century, we didn’t need it before and we definitely don’t need the militarized version we have now.

      What good does a cop do now that wouldn’t be done better by someone with narrower focus and training?

      Actual accountability for cops. None of this “blue wall” bullshit, and they can lose the “us vs. them” attitude.

    Most bricks are placed by governments to give them a reason to arrest you. Do not brick your protests. (Source: me & past events)

    psychopathic cops are by-products of a system built by some other people (you know who), so aim your bricks in the right direction if you must. In the game Mario Land of course.

      Most crime is white collar against the working class. By far the largest form of crime is wage theft.

          Cops function exactly like Pinkertons every time a company calls them on strikers, so…

    Violence is never an option! And if you think it is, you’re wrong.

    Sorry I made a mistake. English isn’t my first language. What I meant was: Violence should never be an option. And if you think it’s okay to throw a brick at a random person without provocation because you can’t distinguish between real people, abstract identity groups and news from all around the world, then you’re wrong.

      Violence is most certainly an option, but I don’t think it should be directed towards cops.

      It should be direct towards our puppet-masters and their offspring.
