it means you're an idiot. the cops aren't preventing death with limited success, they are the ones killing people.
Abolishing cops (use funding for actual community) will lower the amount of death they cause. Abolishing doctors (already a thing given it's provatised and therefore not even in the same conversation) will only increase death.
Please take a chance to think before you type
What question are you answering with that?
"it means you're an idiot."
or
"it means you're an idiot."
it means your comparison is disingenuous, and either you're a troll stupid enough to call that a "gotcha" or just plain stupid.
imagine the statement of "going too fast is dangerous and causes a lot of death", and someone replies "well, you're using a phone that moves information packets at nearly the speed of light? should we ban phones?"
