Defunding the police sounds like an action I can’t get behind. •Train them to address mental health encounters •Equip all of them with body cams •Eliminate paid administrative leave after shootings •Terminate appropriately •Hold DAs and departments to account
Appropriate enforcement of our laws is imperative to living in a civil society. You can abhor and demand an end to racism and racist actions and still support law enforcement officers. There are amazing people in law enforcement, but they too must take action to create change.
No one is saying “abolish” the police. But the FOP and other police unions need to be policed from the outside. Cops covering for cops is what needs to stop as well as the militarization of police forces. That’s what the national Guard is for.
Absolutely! Outside oversight is warranted and necessary. Requiring cameras will ease oversight. Unfortunately there are groups conflating defund with abolish. I’ve witnessed reputable people comment several times. It’s a complex issue and the language being used isn’t helping.

Respectfully, policing evolved from slave patrols...an institution with that history has no place in a modern society. This isn't about individual, nice cops and the occasional bad guy cop. This is about systems of oppression.https://www.radicalhistoryreview.org/abusablepast/reading-towards-abolition-a-reading-list-on-policing-rebellion-and-the-criminalization-of-blackness/ …
Also, for folks on the ground that have been doing this type of activism, #defunding is just the first step.https://www.8toabolition.com/
Defunding police doesn't mean no more police. It is a restructuring of funds to better address modern problems. There are many ways to reduce crime other then using more police. We are asking our police to do too much.
When we say "defund the police" we mean divert funds from PDs to community services. I highly recommend reading further into what this entails. http://8toabolition.com has a good brief rundown; this fb post also does well:https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=10158670927517028&id=642807027&sfnsn=mo …
