Breitbart ^ | May 12 2021 | DYLAN GWINN

Posted on 05/11/2021 11:41:20 PM PDT by knighthawk

The publishing company owned by Colin Kaepernick is editing and soon to publish a collection of essays calling for the abolition of police and prisons.

“Today, I’m excited to share that we at @KaepernickPublishing will be releasing our first title, ABOLITION FOR THE PEOPLE: THE MOVEMENT FOR A FUTURE WITHOUT POLICING & PRISONS, on 10/12/21,” Kaepernick wrote on Instagram. “This anthology builds on decades of organizing and writing against policing & prisons & features the work of over 30 contributors plus a reader’s guide, infographics, & cover art by Emory Douglas.

The NFL’s original anthem protester added, “I’m proud to have edited this collection & hope it adds to the chorus of voices calling for a world without & beyond policing & prisons. #AbolitionForThePeople.”

We have thousands of vacant acres behind us - should be quite the cemetery when we get to do our own policing.

What does he want to do instead of jailing criminals, bring back flogging?

He just doesn’t want any of his criminal friends in the NFL to get locked up.

Imagine a US without law enforcement and prisons. Basically, you remove law enforcement, there are/is no need for laws, cause yeah, who exactly is around to enforce them?

I just read an old City Journal interview of Shelby Steele and he discussed Kaepernick in part. I don’t know how you make the hyperlink show up but here is the address.

So what does he plan to do instead of having police to enforce
the laws of the land?

I ask this of people who advocate this nonsense.

Generally they state that communities would come up with
their own form of enforcement made up of community members.

It never quite dawns on these brain-trusts, that is exactly
what our local police are. They are members of the community
hired to make sure folks abide by the laws on the books.

It’s not that complicated to figure out.

Can anyone imagine if two or three power factions were to
seek the power to enforce the law? You could easily have
warring factions as they each vied to be the top dog.

It should also be noted, if there are no police, there are
no people to bring infractions to the local DA. This means
that anyone could do anything they wanted. Who would arrest
a rapist, a pedophile, a murderer, a person who beat other
members of society at random?

Talk about massive chaos.

All Sociopaths hate the police more than anything. They all do. Google it. Its part of the psyche. That can’t stop themselves.

Are Leftists mentally ill or just plain stupid? Or are they just Evil and doing their best to help the Cabal destroy America?
