Honeypots and vigilante justice?
A sudden enthusiasm for the second amendment?
I do think that racist street enforcement by the cops was effective at keeping down certain classes of crime. With BLM, the police are backing off of that.
I absolutely think that modern policing can curb petty crime without racist brutality. I think drones and other surveillance based policing can work with proper constitutional powers/design and delegation to proper public institutions with legal charters.
If it can't be done in California, well, things don't look good.
