Why Can't Folks Imagine a World Without Cops, Without Prisons?

 

Answer: Because people inevitably do evil things to others, as we see daily.

The Founders of our country knew this:

"If men were angels, no government would be necessary. If angels were to govern men, neither external nor internal controls on government would be necessary" Federalist No. 51
If you start with the a worldview that denies reality, then you come to ridiculous solutions. We, as followers of Jesus, see people as made in the Image of God, with inherent worth, but profoundly broken by our sin.

We need a change of heart, not platitudes or "imaginary" answers that cannot work.
