Monday on CNN’s “New Day,” Minneapolis City Council President Lisa Bender defended her council’s attempt to disband the Minneapolis police department following the death of George Floyd.
Bender said, “I think in Minneapolis, watching George Floyd’s death, and the actions of the four police officers that were involved has been a huge wake-up call for so many in Minneapolis to see what many already knew, which is that our police department is not keeping every member of our community safe. And so I think step one for us is to tell the truth. Nine council members from communities all across the city of all different backgrounds, standing together, to tell the truth, and say, this system isn’t working for too many of our neighbors for too long. Our reform efforts have failed, and we have done many, many attempts at reform and new leadership in the department and many things, and we still see this tragic death. And so I think the wake-up of our community is what’s driving the city council’s announcement yesterday. And now the hard work begins for us to rebuild systems that really work to keep all of our communities safe.”
Host Alisyn Camerota asked, “But to be clear, you’re not talking about reform. The word dismantle is intentionally different than reform. This is more than reform. This is dismantling. I mean, activists who support this are calling this a police-free future.”

No Federal troops into Minnie-no-police until after Trump is re-elected.
Detroit 68
They went that with “Open Borders”
Seriously, think about that, esp before St Georgie committed the wrong crime (even for him)
The DEFUND is just further evidence of their absolute “full retard”
Indeed....a perfect example was the reasoning behind the fast and furious gun running.
“Minneapolis City Council President Defends Plan to Dismantle Police: Expecting Help Is ‘Privilege’”
Of course she meant if white folks ask for help it’s privilege but if minorities ask for help it’s necessary to provide it.
Yes, beyond full retard - irreversible moron.
Hello.911 I need help my daughter has been raped..
What color is your daughter.
WHAT????
We only help POC...What color is your daughter????
So the white people, who pay the taxes move out. Then what does that city have?
And just like that, Trump won Minnesota.
She doesn't look totally stupid.
Of course her coffee shop is still intact.
No, you means the commissioner lives in a white privileged neighborhood? She needs to move!
Funny,how these libs always live in “white” communities...ISN’T THAT PRIVILEGE?????
No troops. Not ever for this Democrat kerfuffle.
Minnesota was originally populated by Nordic immigrants, and maintains a great deal of that socialistic attitude....
Little do they know that this is like telling Atilla the Hun, we “ feel your pain” and he smiles while thinking “ so will you”
You can bet that she will continue to have armed security at her home, and she will be the very first to call the cops if someone breaks into her house.
She looks pretty stupid to me. Riding a bike in high heels isn’t too bright, just sayin’. And she’s a member of the Minneapolis Clowncil. That right there qualifies a person as stupid. :) (Hat tip to Justice and Drew on am1130 KTLK for the term clowncil).
Im glad Im “Privileged to own firearms and smart enough to know how to use them!
The mayor is trying to not the one under who’s authority the police get defunded and/or dismantled. But, he likely agrees with the idea.
In any case, the governor needs to step in and...
DISMANTLE THE MINNEAPOLIS CITY COUNCIL and perhaps put the mayor of of his job.
It’s the city council which is being unlawful and putting the city residents in danger. That cannot be allowed to proceed.
City council members are not in agreement with the majority of the people of the city, therefore, they cannot speak for those people. They don’t represent the best interests of the people and of the businesses in the city and state. They have gone full-blown wacko.
And Trump should keep doing what he has been doing. Talking tough, offer help (which will be refused) and criticize mercilessly when they fail to stop the violence. I believe Trump will never “call in the troops” for someplace like Minneapolis or NY City. He knows its a trap.
