    I don't know the person personally like @rocketsjudoka
    but it was very evident what her position is based on her actions and her online post.

    Again, I post what's real and I don't even live in Minnesota. My analogy is if they defunded the Fire Department and people's houses burn down, whose fault is it?

    A guy on Clutchfans who posts YouTube videos?
    @ROXRAN

    And if they knew whose house burned down, is it @J.R. 's fault?

    These people are so stupid… they paint the streets with “defund the police”, have policies that discouraged police and complaining that they are 400 short on police personnel o_O

    Good

    Let the criminals win and the woke people suffer from not being able to find a target or Walgreens within a 15 mile radius
    Force them to drive their cars or get Ubers

    they wanted this
    Let them have it

    US Congress doesn't handle DC policing policy.

    Folks want accountability and less racism in the police force, and they don't want the police to have weapons of war - they don't need em.

    In Austin, where this sort of narrative was haggled over, they cut funding, but most of the cuts were things like.....cutting the horse patrol (I mean who needs that) and other programs that were antiquated, also they cut TANKS and other MILITARY vehicles from the budget.....reasonable things....we are not in a police society.

    And while FOX NEWS paints Austin as a crime ridden city, it couldn't be further from the truth....same for Portland too.......nothing wrong with a little reorganization time and time again.

    trump and his maga enablers have essentially defunded the U.S. Border Patrol even though there is a border crisis...$14B for US border security. That money would pay for 1,300 additional US Border Patrol agents, 1,600 new asylum officers and 375 new judge teams and Immigration and Customs Enforcement would get almost $8 billion in emergency funding, rivaling the agency’s regular annual budget of about $9 billion. The emergency funding would include more than $3 billion for increased detention capacity.
