RE: It’s Time to Start Imagining a Post-Police World — Why Abolishing the Police is Not a Crazy Idea

It might be that the People's deeply ingrained dependence on government would fix itself if deprived of government. No genuine anarchist actually wants chaos and the burning of civilization if they value their life.

The existence of 'authority' robs the individual of moral agency, handing over the decision making process to an external arbiter of what is moral. When this happens the individual is relieved of the personal responsibility for their choices, and morality is replaced by laws dictated by another, fallible, human. The very existence of code enforcers causes a blossoming of immoral and amoral behavior in People who have no way to rectify a personal understanding of moral behavior with the immoral laws and codes with which they've been saddled.

I'm certain you know all this. I just thought it might be good to state where others could see.
