Fact: Those armed w/ state power to deprive life & liberty, exact violence, surveil, & kill have the least amount of oversight & accountability.
Cops. ICE. Customs & border patrol. Prosecutors. Judges. Jail, prison, detention, parole, & probation officials. They demand consequences for others. But fight against any for themselves.
“Accountability.” “Punishment.” “Deterrence.” “Incapacitation.”
These “Law & Order” concepts are weaponized & imposed near-exclusively on traditionally marginalized people & communities. But they don’t bring about public safety. Don’t stop crime. They just inflict pain.
