Should the police be defunded/dismantled

[gshayd]

I fully support liberal Dem Cities defunding their police departments. They have the right to be stupid.

Not just a right, it's unavoidable.

This whole defunding/dismantling of the police boils down to what they really which, Ochlocracy aka Mob-Rule.

Police do a valuable job. Even if we don't see it, they are still doing it. The criminal element would love to see law enforcement disbanded.

For about a week. After that I suspect the criminal element would have a very noticeable decrease in membership

I thought this was all just a bunch of left wing twitter rant at first. But now I see some cities are actually discussing it.

All I know is I didn't buy enough ammo when it was cheap just a short time ago.

Of course not, that's the stupidest Democrat idea yet.

Don't challenge them, I said!

Until someone rose to power. How far would that group get until Feds/State Police stepped in?

We have gangs now and they were mobsters in our past.

Either way it gets bloody and innocents will be hurt. What is the end goal desires of the politicians that support this?

To stay in power

So let's see. If we get rid of the police, then many will hire others to keep watch on businesses and property, which often would be of the criminal sort. Then they will have areas that will evolve security forces. Those forces will grow in size and eventually be made into a police force. So in other words, history repeating itself.

Private police forces. The very best that money can afford!

So if you are wealthy, or connected, it's the very best you can get. If you are poor or middle class, you're pretty much phucked!

Kind of seems similar to what we already have!

Know your enemy. Tucker outlined the real reason for it.

They want current LEO gone. They want THEIR people to be the LEO, just like they infiltrated the military. All the true believers in governent, just like the red guards in China. No more patriots taking an oath to the constitution. Just ideologues with guns and badges who aren't going to do a damn thing about crime. Their purpose will be to pacify US.

This is straight from the commie playbook. You might laugh at it, but how many people 20 years ago thought the military top brass would ever be where it is now?

On the bright side, if we don't have to fund a police department, our taxes will decrease, won't they?

Taxes dont decrease. They are proposing to spend that money on social justice stuff.

I am sure and your refund from the schools being closed is on the way.

Deemus, if you are referring to me, my comment sonewhat tongue-in-cheek. Maybe what it takes to get good people in the USA to realize those against LE are generally the ones who need to be in prison!

I don't think it was your idea to defund the police. Carry on.

 

[avvidclif]

Hmmmmm, thinking out loud. If Minneapolis gets rid of the police dept and there is no-one to enforce the law does that mean it's open season on liberals? Naw the State would mess it up by requiring licenses and bag limits.

avvid - SSS!
Just read an article about Camden, Nj that got rid of LE, well, almost. Changed the name and no real difference but LEO did serve hot dogs - mustard or ketchup?
