Agree

No, and abolish the police

While Owenism does not explicitly call for the abolition of the police, its utopian vision of a society based on mutual aid, cooperation, and communal living suggests a radical rethinking of traditional law enforcement methods.

Slightly disagree

Yes, but with strict training on how and when to use the equipment

Owenism might see the value in ensuring that any use of force is well-regulated and officers are properly trained.
