Who replaces the police? BLM activists call for officers to be replaced with social workers, mental health advocates and homeless charities
UK Daily Mail ^ | June 8, 2020 | Milly Vincent

Black Lives Matter activists pushing to 'defund the police' have proposed plans to replace officers with social workers, mental health advocates and homeless charities. Their chants called for widespread disbanding of U.S. police forces after Minneapolis councilors voted to abolish the city's police force in an historic move after days of protests over the killing of George Floyd during an arrest. However supporters of 'defund the police' say their demands are not necessarily about eliminating police departments or stripping agencies of all of their money. They say it is time for the country to address systemic problems in policing in America and spend more on what communities across the U.S. need, like housing and education.

Oh heck naw! They need to stay right where they are. We don’t want them, or there voting records, anywhere near where I live.

They already have those groups; not one of them will come to your house for an active break-in, an escaped convict hunt or a live shooting at a mall.

Exactly, who is going to stop the taxpayer from ridding himself of the crime ridden parasites? Who will stop the cycle of revenge when one of their pets robs a store, or steals a car, or kills someone’s family member. No one!

I am of the opinion that SWAT teams need to answer to the Sheriff who is elected. Team members are required to undergo regular medical checkups including testing for drugs and steroids.

Further, a “no knock” raid should only be permitted when requested by the Sheriff’s office (SWAT) and signed off by an elected local judge who finds that 1) there is sufficient probable cause that there exists a risk to the loss of life of a citizen and 2) that such a raid can not be accomplished by other means; to justify the use of lethal force.

At best they will balkanize the city. The Infidels will set up Saria patrols and start chopping off thieves’ hands and noses. The wealthy lieberals will either move or suddenly become a big fan of walled, gated neighborhoods.

However, most likely the city will disentigrate and the locust that voted for these idiots will go contaminate somewhere else.

This is going to end up with left wing “paramilitaries” that exchange harassment of one form to another.

Once you apologize for something, they never stop coming ast you.

Even if reparations happened, within one year all who received the money would be broke and back for more saying it wasn’t enough.

Apologize to knee-taking assholes, here they come with more demands.

Apologize for being white, here they come with demands for more apologies and special privileges.

Headline: “BLM activists call for officers to be replaced with social workers, mental health advocates and homeless charities.” Okay, but only if these people are carrying guns, tazers and other lethal weapons. There be some Crazy DruggedUp people out there that can’t be stopped with Words & Love.

WHAT a colossal joke.
The ACTIVISTS should get a GRIP on reality. Those are all government workers! They would be the LAST PEOPLE on the earth to see people straighten up and fix their lives.
They might even really resent the busybodies who want to horn in on their gig.

The Catholic Church starts and runs the lion's share of homeless charities--MOST charities for that matter. THEY won't stop because they believe that it's their Christian duty to help the down and out.
THEY won't stop.
Darn ole Catholics!

BLM, a movement based on a lie to perpetuate the lie.

If you repeat a lie often enough, people will believe it, and you will even come to believe it yourself.

Nope. I can't think of a better bunch of people for this to happen to. They are going to be eaten alive, literally.

Reality, red of tooth and claw, is FINALLY going to demonstrate the why of Natural Selection, and that naive stupidity is self-correcting.

I just hope they video the results. What do you think? A Cabernet with spraying blood?

What they are saying is that Black people will promise to behave if they just get rid of the police.

When your store is being robbed, who do you call?

Race Busters.

This could get really interesting (for everyone but those in Minneapolis!).
1. With no law enforcement I would assume that it would serve as a magnet for criminals from all over the country to more there? Can’t get arrest? Wow! How much fun they will have!

2. What happens when someone want what you have worked hard to get? Guess they have a right to take it cause you obviously got it through systemic racism! Let’s see how this is going to work.
