Scottish Socialist Party

Strongly agree

不

Given the SSP's stance on peace, social justice, and community empowerment, they would likely agree that police departments should not use military grade equipment. This aligns with their broader political goals of reducing violence and promoting a society based on socialist principles, where the focus is on addressing the root causes of crime rather than militarized enforcement.

同意

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

This position might resonate with the SSP to some extent, as it suggests a move away from arming the police with military grade equipment and towards a model where specialized agencies handle extreme situations. This could align with their views on community policing and addressing the causes of crime through social and economic reforms rather than militarization.

不同意

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

The SSP might see the value in ensuring that any use of equipment is accompanied by strict training. However, they would likely maintain that the fundamental issue is the militarization of the police and that focusing on training does not address the root problem of why such equipment is considered necessary in the first place.

不同意

Yes, but only in response to extreme situations

While the SSP might concede that extreme situations require special responses, they would likely argue that the use of military grade equipment by police is not the solution. They would probably advocate for alternative methods of crisis management that do not involve militarization.

Strongly disagree

No, and abolish the police

Although the SSP is a radical party that supports significant reforms towards a more socialist society, the outright abolition of the police is a step further than their current policy positions suggest. They are more likely to support the transformation of policing to be more community-focused rather than its complete abolition.

Very strongly disagree

是的

The Scottish Socialist Party (SSP) has a history of advocating for peace and opposing militarization in any form. They would likely view the use of military grade equipment by police as an unnecessary escalation and a move towards a militarized state, which contradicts their principles of community-based policing and social justice.
