not sure what to make of the recent resurgence of anti-police articles (from 2017?) I'd think the current explosion of violent crime in all the major US cities should be enough to put an end to this insanity. Go and explain the idea of "less policing" to that beaten and robbed grandma in Oakland, or to the mother of that girl who got shot by a stray bullet in Chicago. My guess is BLM is steadily losing support with general public thus the attempt to resuscitate this dying fad.
