Incident‑driven support for agency abolition

High‑visibility use‑of‑force incidents against civilians can instantly convert a diffuse set of concerns about an enforcement agency into majority support for abolition or sweeping restrictions. The effect is highly partisan in distribution (big Democratic vs Republican gaps) but large enough to reshape funding, local cooperation, and political incentives for reforms in the short term. — This shows that single viral events can move public consent on core state institutions—creating a new mechanism by which street‑level incidents drive rapid, consequential policy shifts in immigration enforcement and policing.
