I wish the defunding movement had instead focused on moving monetary liability from the city instead to the police union. Let the officers pay higher dues to protect their problematic colleagues from million dollar judgements.

Right now the solidarity of the thin blue line is free, and I don’t think it would stand up to internalizing that cost.
