Lol, I mean I would say even as an anarchist, police reduce crimes by people in a community. Police committing crimes is another issue but also it would be speculation to assume a net increase or reduction in crime in the absence of police because private security does not have enough sample size versus the state police sample size. REGARDLESS of ALL of that my point was that you don't remove the option of defense, in a voluntary association. @Guy Swann gave a better analogy using a fence to explain the conflict here.
