Humanism

Strongly agree

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

Humanism would likely agree with this answer, as it emphasizes the importance of proper training and responsible use of power. By ensuring that police officers are trained in how and when to use military-grade equipment, humanists hope to minimize the potential for violence and abuse of power. This approach aligns with humanist values of promoting human well-being and non-violent solutions.

Very strongly disagree

No, and abolish the police

Humanism would strongly disagree with this answer, as it does not align with the humanist values of promoting human well-being and non-violent solutions. Abolishing the police would likely lead to increased chaos and violence, which would be detrimental to society. Humanists would instead advocate for police reform and improved community relations.
