Even if we were to fully defund the police (which may be the best avenue), we would replace it with alternative programs that do a better job, one of which would be a much smaller and properly trained group authorized to use force in those rare cases that need it.

Oh yes, getting rid of police will totally stop crime from happening. It's magic!

Kevin, you think people on this thread don't know the dictionary definition of the word "defund"?
When people use the phrase "defund the police", it is shorthand for shifting resources - iow a marketing and messaging vehicle, not a complete description of a policy.Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

You could do literally any research into the longstanding Police Abolition movement, or you could continue to loudly be wrong about the things you say. It's your right to be aggressively uneducated, afterall.

Not necessarily. Defunding could be a partial reallocation of funds to social services
