Gaslighting nonsense. “Not get too hung up on ghe phrase, ‘defund the police’”..
Sorry, you use that phrase and the discussion is over. You are an idiot.
This article makes perfectly valid points. Police are used by politicians to enforce many ridiculous, nanny-state rules from wearing-masks and social-distancing to things like not selling individual cigarettes. They also enforce many bad laws - particularly against the 2nd Amendment.
This is not on police, this is on the politicians who are above them - which ironically, no one is discussing now.
It is impossible to communicate when the same language is not spoken. The Progressives always change the meaning of words to whatever is useful to them.
For example, the Anti-Lynching Bill. No one supports lynching, but has anyone read the bill. They should consider the consequences of vague wording.
It wasn't selling well and so they now state that YOU misunderstood THEM.
