One that comes to mind for me: “Whatever doesn’t kill you makes you stronger” is not always true. Maybe even only half the time! Are there any phrases you tend to hear and shake your head at?

    Some people mean it literally, in that viewpoint the system of policing itself is a problem and is not necessary in a fair and just society.

    You will no doubt ask some trivial questions about this, but I’m just going to say up front that I’m not here to debate it.

    You can read about police abolition and anarchism for some perspectives.
