The Minneapolis City Council president said the city is aiming to have a "police-free future" as it shifts to dismantle its police department following the death of George Floyd.
Council President Lisa Bender noted on Monday that the change will take time but said that the city is aspiring to change the department completely with the goal of eventually eliminating police altogether.
"I think the idea of having a police-free future is very aspirational, and I am willing to stand with community members who are asking us to think of that as the goal because so many folks in our community have seen us work on reform," she told CNN's Chris Cuomo.

paraphrasing: "We should live in a such a way where we realize its better if the police don't come"
I can't find the quote (from Camarota/CNN iirc). Scary
I think she’s just tired of AOC getting all the left wing limelight, got to get out ahead in the “can’t fix stupid” wars.
The three stooges...
Minnesota businesses COME ON DOWN
A city without police is akin to having lots of mice, but NO traps.
Good luck with that!
Could be this thinking is embedded in the minds of those going through our LIBERAL school system of the last 30 years.
Now they are council members, mayors, etc and they actually BELIEVE the $hit that was fed to them in their education years.
How about a crime-free-nation? Utopia is a dream, not a possibly. What the anti-police and anti-2nd amendment folks want is a law-free-nation or a lawless-nation which equals a violent crime-invested-nation. No Laws = No Crime??????? Yeah, sure, until a reality check catches up with these senseless purveyors of national destruction.
Read it...and taught it. I was thinking more about Rom. 1:18-32.
Romans 1:18-32 pretty much encapsulates a significant portion of America these days.
This does not end well.
Lisa Gender Bender is a MAN CHILD!!
Lisa Gender Bender is a MAN CHILD!!
Not only council members, mayors, but neighbors and children.
My own 34 year old daughter send me the video of the old guy in Buffalo, NY striding up to the front line of the police and getting shoved aside. She said “See Dad, this is police brutality. He was just trying to return a police helmet to them.”
I told her things are not always as they seem and she needs to be more skeptical of events and look more deeply. Sure enough, info quickly comes out he is an agitator/activist, was looking to cause trouble, has been arrested four times, was doing electronic scans of the police comms equipment, and probably staged the fake blood out of the ear.
Of course, no response from her.
‘The goal’ is a ‘police-free future’
On this years vacation be sure to check out Boot Hill.
Imagine being a business owner in this city and hearing this fool say they won’t protect you, your business or your family.
Doesn’t end well...unless you are in Christ. Then, it will be well for one’s soul forever.
Thank you for your thoughts.
I’m OK with the level of assistance that you are thinking about.
And therein lies the core issue of the problem.
Once the TRUTH is presented it is then IGNORED.
Scares me and I'm fearless!
AMEN to that!
Your comment is "spot on" because it's as SIMPLE as can be stated
Yes. You present facts to them and they react either with 1) “you are a racist” ad hominem attacks, or 2) “that’s been debunked,” or 3) stony silence. I find very few of them capable of adult discussion of ideas.
