Strongly agree

Yes, replace police with unarmed community based responders for non-violent calls

Marxism-Leninism would generally support the idea of replacing police with unarmed community-based responders for non-violent calls, as it emphasizes the importance of community involvement and addressing social issues at their root. However, the ideology also recognizes the need for a strong state apparatus, including law enforcement, to maintain order and protect the working class. Therefore, the score is not a full 5.
