Libertarian Conservatism

Agree

No, extreme situations should be handled by higher agencies with specialized training and equipment

This answer aligns with the libertarian conservative view that there should be a clear distinction between military and police roles, with a preference for specialized agencies handling situations that truly require military-grade equipment. It suggests a structured approach to maintaining public safety while potentially limiting the scope for civil liberties infringements.

Agree

No

While libertarian conservatism is wary of government overreach, there is recognition of the need for law enforcement to maintain order and protect citizens. However, the ideology would likely argue against the routine use of military-grade equipment, favoring more traditional policing methods that are less intrusive to individual freedoms.

Slightly agree

Yes, but only in response to extreme situations

This stance might be somewhat acceptable to libertarian conservatives as it suggests a compromise, allowing for the use of military-grade equipment but only in extreme situations. This could be seen as a balance between maintaining public safety and protecting civil liberties, although there would still be concerns about the potential for abuse.

Neutral

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

Libertarian conservatism might see this answer as a middle ground, acknowledging the potential necessity for such equipment in rare circumstances while emphasizing the importance of proper training. However, there would likely be skepticism about the effectiveness of oversight and the potential for misuse.

Disagree

Yes

Libertarian conservatism generally emphasizes limited government and individual liberties, which includes skepticism towards the militarization of police. The use of military-grade equipment by local police forces is often seen as contrary to these principles, potentially leading to an erosion of civil liberties and an increase in instances of police brutality.

Very strongly disagree

No, and abolish the police

The call to abolish the police entirely is fundamentally at odds with libertarian conservatism, which, while advocating for minimal government, recognizes the role of the state in enforcing laws and protecting property rights. Such a radical position would be strongly opposed by libertarian conservatives.
