the middle-of-the-road opinion that defund activists hate is the "just get rid of the bad apples!" concept; that most police are good people and a few of them are bad apples. But let's say you're in the "bad apples" camp. When people like this, who are pro-police don't seem to be able to identify any bad apples whatsover, including an officer as egregious as Derek Chauvin, it points to the possibility that they don't actually believe in the "bad apples" theory and it's just a smoke screen.
"bad apples" might not be satisfying to anti-police activists but it would be nice if more people could agree on some of the obviously very bad apples that are present.
