None of which says it was a bad idea. How about addressing the rest of the post? Or are you merely interested in trying to score points?
The rest of your post had nothing to do with defunding the police. You went to Obama and black dropout rates. And the first line of my response was that technically your comment was true, but most every other post, including the parts I cited injustices you think it's a bad idea.
If they were a restaurant, their Yelp reviews would be terrible. I really do not think anyone actually likes them. Republicans seem to HAVE to support them as part of their identity politics. I'm just surprised everyone doesn't want BETTER police.
Democrats have had unchallenged control of most of these urban areas with high crime rates for 50 years. Where's the prevention been so far?
Not a bad idea, just not the best idea. I see you're still only interested in point scoring so have a nice day.
