Sigh... Remove funding for the police to gather used and new military gear to use against the populace, while much more accurate - isn't as sticky... Sticky thoughts win over accurate ones. Truth needs a proper wrapping now a-days to even get looked at. How about this for a new phase: "pay for: effective Detectives; not toys." OR: "detectives solves cases: military toys melt faces."

"Demilitarize the police" would certainly have been a better slogan than "defund the police".

  It was more accurate. I've heard that around the same time defund was going around... But humans don't select catch-phases and sound-bites by their truth value... Sticky truths: that's what we need.

>> Remove funding for the police to gather used and new military gear to use against the populace That's not what I remember. I remember calls in the most highly regarded news media to literally abolish the police. Do you remember those?

  I remember what the media was saying was different from what the leftists were saying. I remember the twisting of the most offensive viral take to garner views for the news outlets, sure... Do you believe everything you see on TV?
