BillsFanNC Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 FYI.. "reducing the allocation of funds" or other similar word game phrases is the same as defunding.

Brandon Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 If I were to look further, what are the odds that the crime rates in the major cities of each state are much higher than the overall state average and that those major cities have been controlled by Dems for decades? 1

But the damage to the country, and the Dems, has already been done.

(citation needed) Actually, crime is up because the lizard people took over during the pandemic and they are pro crime because criminals vote for lizards.

Just like crime stats by race, one Google search reveals that the center of all this nonsense, Minneapolis, did indeed reduce police funding in 2020, amid spiking violent crime as a result of the Summer of St. Floyd. Famously, public pressure caused the city to do an about face around a year later. 1

Along with reducing the number of police and law enforcement these cities also make it difficult for private citizens to protect themselves. In many cases citizens that perform acts of self-defense against criminals are scrutinized by prosecutors more than the perpetrator of the act. This two-step sorry ass act, limiting the amount of government provided protection while inhibiting citizens ability to protect themselves is simply brilliant!

SoCal Deek Posted November 7, 2022 Posted November 7, 2022 True story….back in junior high school (a long long time ago) I was researching something for my science fair assignment. I can’t remember what my project was about but I clearly remember a factoid I learned along the way. Back in the Middle Ages some thought that rats were created from dirty rags and filth, because when those things were present, so were rats. It’s much the same with law enforcement, but it’s no longer the Middle Ages. The Left is convinced that crime comes from police presence, because they always see police officers at crime scenes. Nothing has changed in the last 500 years. 1 2

Mostly the left reflexively views police as a tool of systemic racial oppression unless they're committing acts of violence against conservative individuals or groups in which case they'll just fine with the violence part.

Never mind that the Dems' about-face on "defunding the police" has long-lasting terrible consequences that "refunding" them won't help, like the depleting workforce.

I have posted long form on the disturbing trend of making out feds to be police officers in the traditional sense (see Sicknick, B) and making actual cops out to be KKK demons. Local law enforcement is one of the last refuges of institutional violence that can theoretically operate outside of the DC regime’s control.

Actually, if you were really paying attention and actually serious about crime, you would oppose the democrat judges and lawmakers in blue states who refuse to arrest anyone. Are you for no consequences for those that break the laws?
