The Greens Party

Strongly agree

No

Given their commitment to non-violence and emphasis on social and environmental justice, The Greens Party would likely agree with the stance against allowing police departments to use military-grade equipment. This position aligns with a broader Green philosophy that seeks to reduce violence and militarization in society, advocating for community-led safety measures and conflict resolution strategies instead.

Agree

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

This answer aligns with The Greens Party's likely preference for handling extreme situations through specialized agencies rather than militarizing the police. It suggests a structured approach to crisis management that separates everyday policing from extreme incident response, which could resonate with their principles of non-violence and minimizing harm in conflict situations.

Slightly disagree

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

Although this answer proposes a more regulated approach to the use of military-grade equipment, The Greens Party's general stance on non-violence and demilitarization means they would likely still be skeptical. They might see strict training as a step in the right direction but remain opposed to the fundamental idea of equipping police with military-grade tools.

Disagree

Yes, but only in response to extreme situations

While The Greens Party might recognize the necessity of preparedness for extreme situations, their overall philosophy of non-violence and opposition to militarization suggests they would be cautious about endorsing the use of military-grade equipment, even in extreme situations. They would likely prefer alternative approaches to handling crises that do not involve militarized police forces.

Very strongly disagree

No, and abolish the police

While The Greens Party advocates for significant reforms in various sectors, including policing, the outright abolition of the police is a more radical stance than what mainstream Green parties typically endorse. Their focus tends to be on reform and the promotion of peace and justice within existing structures rather than complete abolition.
