"Why can’t folks imagine a world without the cops? Why can’t folks imagine a world without prisons? Why can’t people expand their imaginations to include community care, to include an abolitionist future?”

I may be wrong, but I don't think this is a winning message; particularly in the two weeks after a rapist awaiting trial was released due to Covid and proceeded to murder his victim, then the MA Bail Fund paid bail for the rapist who promptly raped another woman.

They also want the dirty cops arrested (which I agree with)... But if there are no jails, where do we put them?

It's definitely a head scratcher.
