Police are terrible at dealing with rape victims, and solving rapes. Heck, police are often rapists themselves: https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/albertsamaha/this-teenager-accused-two-on-duty-cops-of-rape-she-had-no?utm_source=dynamic&utm_campaign=bffbsoml&ref=bffbsoml&fbclid=IwAR0S_1RgZTeIadOMkG1RiPqLPHcl0VvIsE5oh0nmjNLlDHgDxNmw4lHkK8U

Our current system does not work for rape victims, so threatening women with "what will you do about rapes?" isn't going to work. [/quote]

[b]You still have not identified any other alternative to protecting women[/b].  And saying "police are often rapists themselves" is bs. "Often"? really? show me some statistics and not some anecdote. [/quote]

DP. Others on this thread did. [/quote]

Social workers and EMTs? Is that it? [/quote]

And crisis response professionals, mental health workers, de-escalation trained civilians, firefighters, and domestic violence advocates.

Look, I realize that you think criminals are hiding in the bushes waiting for police abolition so that they can break into your suburban house and steal your stand mixer, but that isn’t reality.[/quote]
