I guarantee you that the people who argue “abolish policing” have thought about this concept 100x more thoroughly than every single person who reacts “haha that’s dumb” has thought about their reflexive defense of the need for police/prisons

Yeah those too. Thankfully it's not a difficult argument to make to change to more descriptive terms. Those don't actually mean anything themselves, you have to be taught what they mean. In contrast to blocklist/allowlist or variations.

It's only tear gas if it comes from the Têar region of France, otherwise it's just sparkling white supremacy.
The US Park Police says its officers did *not* deploy tear gas at Lafayette Park, but acknowledges using "smoke canisters and pepper balls," that contain a chemical designed to irritate the eyes.
