Nah-it aint about changing the meaning of who the police is...its about systems and who keeps the systems moving. If u wiped out all the po-po, u haven't destroyed anything. Just people who can be replaced. However if you destroy the concept-the system that is the "police" than you've destroyed it at the core.
