Why not defund the police?
My fetid mind | May 9th, 2021 | Mariner

Posted on 05/09/2021 10:49:46 AM PDT by Mariner

Ask yourself, when was the last time a police force acted in accordance with your interests and expectations?

Did they protect your property or business from rioters and arson?

Are they allowing lawlessness to run rampant in one segment of society, while they stridently enforce laws that prevent you from protecting your interests?

What do YOU need them for? Anything?

When police forces refuse to enforce criminal property laws the middle class has no use for them. When they prevent you from protecting you and yours, they have become your adversary.

So, why not defund and disband?

“you’ll find out what they do for you”

Why don’t you tell me what they do for me?

I’m quite curious.

You assert like you’re an expert.

Florida has at least one big city of a sort that is usually Democrat misruled and that is Jacksonville, Jax had one instance of the BLM/antifa riots who, themselves, experienced an incident of efficient policing. There has been no repeat of the rioting. Republican mayor there.

You still have not edified us on what the police do for us.

My county is peaceful.
When BLM scheduled a protest here, it was…canceled.
Defund your police, leave mine be.

I am sorry, but can you expand on your post? I can not understand it at all, but I’m sure there is a point somewhere.

Somehow this county worked when there were no police departments and everyone was well armed.

And there it is, folks, the Cogent Post of the Thread!
