      This is why you punch them and let them know you’re actually helping them by doing negative enforcement.

      There’s a huge body of academic evidence showing that broadly policing is an ineffective intervention for crime. Including a huge study commissioned by the us government before the 84 crime bill.

      That we then passed anyway.
