I am looking for a reform of the institution.
What I mean is that I am rejecting the anarchist notion that there should be no such thing as law enforcement, reformed or otherwise. Because they reject the notion of a state at all.
You think you're looking to reform it, but I think you're actually looking to abolish it and you don't yet realize that. If you understand that the problem is institutional and not individual, and you intend to reshape the institution to correct this, if you are actually effective and complete in those efforts (And sensitive to why a law is enforced rather than merely the act of doing so for it's own sake) you will probably wind up with something that looks like community defense. Which is fundamentally different from policing in both form and mission.
