5% of all arrests in America are for violent crime and fewer than 1% are for murder. If that’s your argument, then you should at least be in support of cutting police budgets by 95-99%. https://twitter.com/germanrlopez/status/1268408728950394882 …
Saying "crime is low, therefore we should get rid of the police" misses the point that crime could be low BECAUSE of the police. Let's say there have been no people killed by tigers at the zoo for over 30 years, that doesn't mean we should get rid of their cages.
that is not his point. his point is if you think you need police for murder/violent crimes you only need 1-5% of the funding because they spend 95-99% of their time on other (non violent) stuff. he did not argue that you don't need police for murder
or rather the point is not whether you need police to prevent crime or not but what constitutes as crime to begin with
"Data shows that the raw numbers of police have declined over the past five years, and the rate of police officers per 1,000 residents has been dropping for two decades. At the same time, the violent crime rate has also dropped."https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.usatoday.com/amp/2818056002 …
It's not that simple though. Just because cops are falling doesn't mean fewer cops => less crime. Over the same period, look at what has happened to our prison population.pic.twitter.com/oAXukWJ92h
We don't need as many. Also, we don't need them to afford to be so militarized, it encourages a Robo-cop mindset and that helps no community in the end. In fact it robs a community of a vital trust in each other.
dehumanizing victims of overpolicing 
ignoring empirical evidence
yup: this tweets a winner
