    Haha, sure, if thats what you need it to be. You figured it out. Its actually that I don’t understand what I’m talking about and not that your debatebro crap doesn’t work on me.

    So, just to confirm, you’re saying that there are only two options for dealing with crime.

    A) We have the police exactly as they are now

    B) We pretend crime doesn’t exist

    And me asking questions about this false dichotomy you’re trying to force here is because I, not you, don’t understand a problem here?

    I just need to check thats what’s going on here and that you’re OK with that being your position. If its not, please feel free to let me know.

    I hope you can understand that I’m hardly going to have an open conversation with someone who won’t even admit that a third option can exist here.

      You are literally replying to a comment explaining that I do not believe that! Here is what I said again, since you clearly didn’t read it the first time:

      The police exactly as we have them now fucking suck, but you seem to think they should be abolished rather than reformed, and I’m still waiting for you to tell me how, why, and what they should be replaced with.

      What is it with leftists and never reading past the first sentence?

      I have repeatedly explained that I am open to the possibility of a third option, and repeatedly asked you what it is. You have yet to do anything other than stall the conversation and deliberately misrepresent my position. I am forced to conclude that you have no argument to present and are simply trolling.

      If this is not the case, let me know. If it is the case, just make one more comment not answering the goddamn question so I can finally block you with a clean conscience.
