HUH? The screw ball "solutions" were being ridiculed before they were first implemented , the obvious consequences pointed out, put into practice by that imbedded infrastructure called elected officials, the police have the function of enforcement of the laws made by other bodies, this is not push back, its easy to disagree with politicians, the legislature and how some police enforce the law but still they are all part of what you need to have a functioning society, the criminal element and anyone so inclined as demonstrated has been greatly encouraged , without the rule of law and to whatever extent there is no functioning society, these solutions been trending for some time, the next "solution" being only the cause for an expanding problem
