Can We Eliminate The Police Force and Still Have Law and Order?

The recent Police AccountabilityTask Force report showed that police have been extraordinarily abusive toward citizens in a way that is undeniably racially biased. Today in a Press Conference, Rev. Jesse Jackson is calling for meaningful police reforms. But can we really reform an organization that evolved out of the old Slave Patrols? There are societies that function without police, and the people live in peace with each other.  Is it time to eliminate the police all together as an entity that keeps "law and order"? At this point, it seems that in some communities, police are seen as the problem, not the solution. So, if someone robs you at gunpoint, who do you call? If someone breaks into your home, who do you call? If someone steals your car, who do you call? If someone threatens to inflict bodily harm on you, who do you call? Is there another way we could keep the peace without police? What would a community look like if constant patrols were not in place? How can we create future communities that exist without an armed police patrol? Retired police officer T. C. McCoy gives his point of view.
