Definitely something that needs to be taken in consideration when we talk about disbanding police forces.

I’m all for disbanding police departments as they now exist but we need to remember a piece of history. When the US invaded Iraq we disbanded their army, and those former army forces created ISIS. The last thing we need is thousands of angry excops forming a militia of their own.

We didn't disband police in Iraq. ] We invaded them and overthrew their government. There's a huge difference.

I’m talking about what happened after the invasion, when Paul Bremmer disbanded the army. Read up.

Still completely different than communities disbanding their own police in a systematic method..
