"You think its easier to not have poor people than reform police? I dont think the first is feasible in a population this size. The latter is absolutely attainable with a dozen law changes to hold cops accountable, which will also mean less of them"
The person you asked that to didn't claim that "it's easier to not have poor people than reform police". "Not having poor people" would require a complete restructuring of political and economic systems, while police reform would require fewer changes.
It is, however, easier to have fewer poor people, that are less poor, than it is to reform the police.
Step 1 is increase taxes on the rich.
Step 2 is use that money to buy and build houses.
Step 3 is give those houses to anyone that needs one.
So for your original question, no, I don't think that.
