    It's unfortunate to see how few reactionaries to the "defund the police" slogan actually take the time to understand the issue.

    ~ Defunding police may be a moot topic. Many police officers are taking early retirement or quitting. New applicants are down. We could soon all be living in CHAZ paradise .

    As was pointed out in another thread, Mitch McTreason has forced cities and towns to defund the police by refusing to allow federal aid from the relief bill to go to states and municipalities.

    Oh yeah, it's one man's fault, the Kentucky senator who is the republican leader in the 100 member senate. That dastardly man has forced our 50 states and hundreds of municipalities that just happen to have taxing powers and budget powers to have to defund their police.

    Believe me, the Defund the police issue is fully understood by sane people,
    one of them learning this lesson,
    Rantz: Seattle CM called police she defunded to report crime she is effectively legalizing
    https://mynorthwest.com/2370278/ran...o-report-crime-she-is-effectively-legalizing/
    I do agree with the new law in Minneapolis that eliminates bail for thefts under $35,000 and spousal abuse. What is the age and model car do you drive? Minneapolis has over 325 car jackings in the last few months.

    It's funny they are trying to pin this movement on the right somehow when a bunch of their
    'smarter" liberals have been telling them to quit shouting this from the rooftops and the crowds of uneducated losers understand very well what they want.

    No more police around them.

    It is irrelevant that police help people because they have been so brainwashed by the left that all they see is rage.

    I suggest you learn how to intercept unknown people when on guard duty.

    That would take effort and at least 50 IQ points.

    They were defunding the police before this relief bill came up. Additionally, there is likely other candidates for defunding besides the police.

    Do what the police tell you to do and do not resist arrest and nine out of ten of the police killings would not have taken place.

    Risking your life resisting arrest is not justified either. When you resist, it results in confrontation and more violence. At that point both the police and the victim are at risk.

    You can defend criminals all you want. I really don't care the treatment they get.

    I am sure you don't yet that is not what the issue here is, your feelings are not the OP. The cops got to this point by not caring....

    I would rather defund criminals than police. Lock up homeless drug attics or stop saving them and give the money we use to keep them alive to the police department for example.

    Unfortunately, play stupid games win stupid prizes. Contrary to popular belief, cops are not trained to "shoot to kill." They are trained to aim for center mass to insure the greatest potential for stopping the threat. Unfortunately, this does often result in the noncompliant subject expiring. There is a very important reason to comply with the lawful orders of police: They don't know you. And they want to go home and kick their feet up at the end of their shift, not be toe up in a morgue.

    This seems like a good time to share this:

    Curious for your thoughts.
