What Could Possibly Go Wrong? Activist Wants to Abolish Police [VIDEOS]

A Chicago activist appearing on Fox News “Kelly File” vehemently advocated for the abolition of police forces.

Said Jessica Disu in a heated discussion:

“We need to abolish the police. Period. Demilitarize the police, disarm the police, and we need to come up with community solutions for transformative justice.”

Who thinks that’s a good idea? Anyone, anyone? Bueller, Bueller?

Ms. Disu is wrong on so many levels. First of all, the first police department in America was not started as a “slave patrol.” According to Police Studies Online at Eastern Kentucky University, the first police force in the United States was organized in Boston in 1838 — because so many slaves were escaping from all the plantations that dotted the New England countryside, of course. Just like in Gone with the Wind.

As far as blacks being shot and killed willy nilly by police officers, two recent studies have proved that notion to be erroneous as well. Just yesterday, the New York Times published an article citing research conducted at Harvard that showed no racial bias in police shootings. It echoed the same results obtained in research conducted by the Washington Post at the end of last year.

The kicker? The author of the Harvard research is Robert G. Fryer, Jr., the youngest black person to receive tenure at Harvard. He called the finding “the most surprising result of his career.”
