As someone from a country with functioning police: It appears to me like the USA’s problem is that they don’t fund the police enough, especially their training.
Here the first training for police takes two years, and after that they still regularly have to continue training. It’s a hard process and only the ones who’re suitable make it.
In the USA it takes three months, of course your police doesn’t work properly. Defunding the police would absolutely not fix that.
This. Well, sort of. Maybe I’m seeing too much of my own experiences here but I feel like they could really stand to be regulated like licensed health professions. Minimum of an associates, sit for board exams, and that board exists to protect the public from you and has the authority to strip or restrict that license.
defund…
the…
police.
It’s wild to me that republicans were spreading the message that Harris was going to defund the police if she got in office.
SHE’S A DAMN COP HERSELF!
This election was nothing but absurdity and a mockery of this nation.
This election, similar like the one in Romania demonstrated how possible is to manipulate people’s beliefs by social media.
Deny Delay Defund
Careful posting that. UHC might try to copyright claim that too.

Defund the police originally meant “stop giving the local police departments high budgets for military surplus gear & vehicles”
