What does 50% defunding of police look like?
Seattle's Marxist city council fool released some details about the plan to reduce the police budget by 50%. It cuts 681 of the 755 officers. Seven of nine council members have voiced support for cutting SPD’s budget in half, a veto-proof majority.

This is what happens when people vote in radicals

Re: What does 50% defunding of police look like?
well I dont know about your cops but cops here in ontario make like 120k per year to sit on their asses and look at their cell phones while a bunch of other lazy government employees try to fix a road.

Cops shot a guy just around the corner from my home, he was reported for walking down a road without a sidewalk. The cops followed him to his back yard and shot him like a dozen times. That was 4 years ago and those same cops and been getting 120k per year while they wait for the investigation to begin.

Yes, we can certainly defund a majority of policy enforcement officers, they are no longer peace officers, their primary duty is to get enough money extracted from the population to pay their cities massive debt loads. Peace keeping is secondary.

Re: What does 50% defunding of police look like?
The police have made my life a living hell for years. Multiple departments. I have not committed any crime. They want me to keep my mouth shut about their dirty deeds. Even though I have they keep coming at me, attacking me and putting their guns to my head to keep my mouth shut. That is the reality of the police.

The only difference between cops and street hoods are the cops have badges, uniform and are better equipped to harm you.

Who spends their life thinking, oh if don't have the police now I am going to commit X crime. No one thinks that way other than the brainwashed sheep into supporting their oppressors.

Wow, as if a 50% budget cut isn't retarded enough, they want to take 90% of the officers that are there. Whose pockets are they lining there?

Defunding the police is one of the most stupidest things I've ever heard of in my life. Clearly, this is a communist plot.

Re: What does 50% defunding of police look like?
cops hiding in the shadows with a radar gun?? defund.

cops over-watching construction workers? defund.

cops patrolling hiking trails or rec areas? defund.

cops setting up barricades in the hope some criminal might come though? defund.


the list goes on and on and on...but..

Cops patrolling high crime areas? FUND

Cops responding to violence? FUND

Cops maintaining the peace in a large crowd? FUND

So then we certainly need the police, but like half of what they are currently doing are things they shouldn't be doing. Alot of the things people dislike or hate about police happens because the cops are put in places and situations they shouldn't be in, as they are unqualified for anything except maintaining the peace through intimidation and threats of violence.

Change my mind its open to new information.

It means that the poor police will only get 25% of the entire city budget instead of the lion's share at 50%+.

It means that maybe some of the potholed roads can get paved and re-striped for once. And maybe some of the broken down park equipment can be fixed. Maybe the libraries can get some decent computers, the possibilities are almost limitless!

If you'll defund the police, it will create a vacuum that will be filled by mafia and gangs. Russia went through this in the 90s. The country was broke. No resources for policing. Crime rate sky-high. People needed protection. Mafia stepped-in to provide protection from itself.

Re: What does 50% defunding of police look like?
It looks like fucking sheer bedlam where the law abiding are on their own.

Everyone better be armed everywhere they go as well as have their permission slip (i.e. CCW license) if required in your locality and a firm grasp of the law regarding lethal force. Having an attorney specializing in self defense on retainer wouldn't be a bad idea either.

Me personally, I work for a major utility in my area. I am armed. My company frowns on that. I know, God forbid, if I have to use it - I'm fired. I don't give a flying Fuck as long as I'm golden in the eyes of the law (permission slip, righteous shoot, legally obtained firearm, etc.). I will deal with the fallout of shooting/killing a scumbag. It will be a draining affair but I will be alive.

I'm not a tough guy and I hope I am never put in a position where I need to test my preparation.
