When you mentioned retaliation, I assumed the police would be roughing people up or harassing them over trivial offences or something. (Classic TV examples: going wild on parking or DUI enforcement at a targeted politician's fundraisers).

"Okay, here's less policing."
Isn't it the point of "defund the police" that fewer incidents get a police response?
