Yes, and abolish the police

Many within the Outsider Left advocate for the abolition of the police as part of a broader vision for a society that addresses safety and conflict through non-punitive, community-led initiatives. This stance is rooted in a belief that the police system is inherently flawed and cannot be reformed in a way that would address its fundamental issues.

Strongly agree

Yes

The Outsider Left generally supports the redirection of funds from police departments to social and community-based programs, viewing it as a way to address root causes of crime such as poverty, lack of education, and inadequate mental health services. This perspective is informed by a broader critique of the criminal justice system and its perceived failures to effectively serve and protect all communities equitably.

Yes, replace police with unarmed community based responders for non-violent calls

The idea of replacing police with unarmed community-based responders for non-violent calls aligns with the Outsider Left's advocacy for alternative approaches to public safety that do not rely on traditional policing. This approach is seen as a way to reduce the potential for violent encounters and ensure that individuals in crisis receive appropriate care and support.

Very strongly disagree

No

The Outsider Left strongly disagrees with maintaining or increasing funding for local police departments without significant reform. They argue that doing so perpetuates systemic issues within policing and the criminal justice system, including racial bias and the over-policing of marginalized communities.

No, increase funding and training for police departments in higher crime rate communities

Increasing funding and training for police departments, especially in higher crime rate communities, is typically opposed by the Outsider Left. They argue that such measures do not address the underlying social and economic issues that lead to crime, and instead, perpetuate a cycle of criminalization and incarceration that disproportionately affects marginalized communities.
