    Policing involves violence and ends up creating an identity around doing violence.

    Policing seeks to solve social issues through force.

    Policing cannot right a wrong, only seek retribution, and occasionally prevent future harm.

    While there are unjust laws (and there always are), police have sworn to use violence to enforce them.

    These critiques will apply when the US is socialist as well.

        There are definitely situations where you can reduce harm by using force, and suppressing the bourgeoisie is one of those.

        There are other things police do too, like police theft and drug use (both of which are crimes in AES states), which cannot be solved through force.
