So what do we do if the police has been defunded to the point that they cannot hope to keep people safe in protests? To save money, plus intentionally, because certain parties thought that the police is the biggest problem to their safety on the streets (which may even have been true for a while, but doesn't seem to be anymore)
- drewcoo 2y agoHaving been to protests, the police are the threat to the people there. defunding them would improve safety.
