There are plenty of government employees earning a paycheck off of Camden. Their livelihoods are invested in the city’s continued failure.
Let the ‘rats own this and make it there platform, you know Trump is going to make them eat this
75% of African Americans don’t want to defund the police
90% of all americans don’t want to defund the police
this is a giant loser for them
Hang it around their necks
Indeed
That Americans can support such a preposterous proposal shows their lack of character and intelligence.
I am ashamed to have to (sometimes) associate with them.
They’re like elementary school children who would vote to have no tests, have all day recess on the playground, and kick out the teachers except to serve lunch which would be all candy, soft drinks and ice cream.
But the Americans are supposed to be “grownups”. Well at least they grew older, not “up”.
FR people are excluded from my rant, as always.
I knew the business admin for Camden School District.
They did the present and sign for your paycheck for all school employees
Over 300 paychecks were never picked up, some of the employees died, retired, or in some cases were never even hired in the first place. But they all were still getting a deposit for years and in some cases, decades.
Camden New Jersey did away with their Police Department?
I had not heard about that. Then their experience should be studied closely as a real world example of what happens if you simply give up on having a local police force in your city.

The professional Republicans will do no such thing. They have neither the courage of their convictions nor do they believe in their own policies.
They are totally feckless.
Thank God for DJT.
They are touted as the go to standard for exactly this. The local news (Kare11 MN) had a segment on it, and of course it was all rainbows and lollipops.
Trump will make them eat the position just like he made them take “open borders” and made them eat that as well.
It is almost like he sets the trap and the idiots fall right into it
Trump “We need to protect our cities from looters and rioters”
Dims “Defund the police”
They just have to be the exact opposite of Trump no matter how ridiculous their stance is.
But he will make them eat it, talk about handing him the 2020 on silver platter.
“They’re like elementary school children who would vote to have no tests, have all day recess on the playground, and kick out the teachers except to serve lunch which would be all candy, soft drinks and ice cream.”
Wish I could squeeze all of that on a t-shirt.
And after 2024? Just like 1988 we will see the professional Republicans come forth and spout: “This is America ... a brilliant diversity spread like stars, like a thousand points of light in a broad and peaceful sky.”
The nation will then resume slouching towards Gomorrah.
Camden replaced its police force because the cops were both brutal and corrupt.
They do seem to be doing better now, with a fewer crimes and better community-police relations.
They turned over responsibility to the county (which wasn’t as heavily minority as Camden itself), then complained that the city wasn’t patrolled by enough minorities. There is a key point here that shouldn’t be ignored: THE WHOLE IDEA WAS TO TRANSFER CAMDEN’S COSTS TO THE SURROUNDING AREA.
How many of the Camden residents pay for police protection? I assume 90+% don’t. Here in NJ our urban police forces are increasingly just jobs programs for preferred minorities, to maintain the illusions of assimilation and a middle class among certain demographics. Few are paid by local taxes (as suburban forces are); they are paid by the “county” - meaning the suburbs.
Here’s a new idea - make all of these black “leaders” spend a few nights riding along with the officers of their local department, and also at dispatch/911 call centers.
Make them hear the distress calls from their constituents asking for help. Make them go to the crime scenes.
Then ask the stupid fcks what will happen when the police isn’t there.
“””Cities Like Camden, New Jersey Show The Dangers of Defunding Police”””
Exactly what are the dangers?
You kinda failed to expound upon it!!!!!
Uh what danger? Their crime rate dropped in half, and they got rid of a very corrupt force. Oooh scary.
Thanks for the compliment.
Maybe the t-shirt could say “I supported defunding police”—
Al Capone, with his picture.
Very well put. I might need to borrow that.
I worked in medical diagnostic imaging maintenance in 1998-99 timeframe. Part of my area was Camden medical facilities. We were required to call hospital security to be escorted from and back to our vehicles. There had been too many incidents of robbery and theft in the parking lots. Saw several incidents of people loitering in the lots; those people disappeared when security showed up. I’m sure the situation hasn’t improved over the past two decades.
