Opinion "Defund the Police" is a mistake - they actually need more money

Yes, let's punish all police for the actions of a few individuals. Wonder how long it takes for the leftists to cry for the police to come back after they're mugged and attacked without consequence.
These people don't want to disband the police
They want to BE the police.
Each street corner to have a brigade that tests passers-by on their privilege and white guilt and send those who fail to reeducation camps.
 
I agree that the police needs more money, but on the left side there is no interest to strengthen the police. The police is a bogeyman, because many officers possess a conservative world view. This is a natural developing process.

The far left was quite successful to occupy many institution. For socialists it's hard to gain control over this particular part of the executive branch. Among other things, antifa is a concept to move the executive power in favor of the left.

Throwing more money at the police won't do anything. They already take a huge chunk of major cities budgets. What is needed is oversight.
 
DeBlasio is a champion and a hero. #DefundThePolice

Authorities have arrested "several" suspects believed to be part of a group of young people who viciously attacked a 15-year-old girl in Brooklyn, chasing her, beating her on the sidewalk and ripping off her sneakers and phone before running off.

The girl was taken to a hospital in stable condition following the disturbing attack on Utica Avenue in Crown Heights Thursday.
 
Not necessarily more money, the resources that exist just need to be allocated better.
 
Shower the pigs with money until they’re literally drowning in bills. Only then will America be safe.
 
After watching the cities burn for the last few weeks, it's quite clear that police departments are hilariously underfunded.
 
My hypothesis is that the entire premise of the Defund the Police movement is flawed - in the sense that I think US police needs to invest into significantly higher training times.

I think there's no real question that there is an issue with police killings in the US.

So I think it's obvious that there is a problem, and has been for a while, even if you account for differences in gun ownership and homicide rate. Whether there's a race angle to this or not, my hypothesis is that the quality of policing depends largely on the quality of training that people receive, and obviously also on the care with which these people are selected.

Police training lasts an average of 3 years in Germany. How does it make sense that in a significantly more difficult environment, police training in the US is much, much shorter?
Joe Biden recently said almost the same thing

[“The better answer is to give police departments the resources they need to implement meaningful reforms, and to condition other federal dollars on completing those reforms. … Every single police department should have the money they need to institute real reforms.”]

What is actually needed is not to be a shit person. That probably would solve most problems.
 
i agree. i dont want defunded police. i want independent federal oversight, incentives for turning in fellow cops who are shit, permanent body cams with repercussions if they are turned off and a complete revamp of the mindset cops take out into the streets.

Great news! May justice be served!

Yes. Just as soon as "reparations" are collected from DeBlasio for allowing his own community to be pillaged and destroyed at the expense of poor folks and small business owners.
