Similarly, this piece has a lot of good ideas on how to decrease the role of police in our lives but ends with "shrink and eventually abolish police." Those are different goals, one much more defensible (politically and substantively) than the former https://t.co/L7U9v5Jxuf — PolitiTweet.org

@cjane87 @freedaaron I also find many of these ideas compelling, but it doesn't change my mind on the wisdom of a maximalist "abolish the police" slogan. The piece ends up with "shrink and eventually abolish police" — they're very different, and I think the former is much more compelling — PolitiTweet.org

@freedaaron @cojobrien @cjane87 Yeah this seems like a really great success story! It's just that you still end up with police, just radically reformed (in a pretty literal sense) rather than abolished in the way we'd conventionally understand the term. — PolitiTweet.org
