De-Funded means to stop having cops deal with situations they are grossly untrained - and frankly completely incompetent to handle. I wake up check the news and once again cops shoot a 13 year old autistic boy who was unarmed for running AWAY from the cops. His mother made the phone call - the mother explained he was autistic - but nope - just shoot him.
The money going to incompetent gun happy high school bullies should be going to trained mental health professionals. This is what is putting police in situations where they may end up osing their jobs, careers etc and it could have been avoided if the funds were diverted to professionals instead of the cops. Cops should be FOR de-funding the police. If only then spent 3 minutes to understand what that means instead of just reading the title and assuming it means less body armor or less cops - it does not.
It is CHEAP tax payers who cause the police to be out there shooting children in the back running away from them.
Today's news story - https://www.wbtv.com/2020/09/22/graphic-utah-police-release-footage-after-officers-shoot-year-old-boy/
There are so many of them - you can spend weeks on youtube watching the same videos over and over - cops plants evidence - make some popcorn and spend the next 10 hours just watching that. State after state after state/
Some places have long had "defunded" police - no problems as seen here.
