Maybe I'm misrepresenting the position, so if so, I'm sorry, but I do not buy for a second that this is the best policing can be, nor do I believe that completely rebuilding it from the bottom up is a worse idea than pouring more money to active slow change over time, or just leaving it the way it is.

No I don’t think you’re misrepresenting my position. I’m all for change and improvements, agencies such as police should always aim to improve. But when I hear language like “burn it down” my first thought is ok, and then what? Like, I hear people trot that line out but offer no plausible alternative. What does burning it down look like to you? What would you do different that is so drastically different from what’s happening now?
