Honestly this is a very good perspective on how things should be handled, instead of screaming defund the police and creating a mad max world
You can't fix the American police system without addressing the inherent flaws it was built on. It's completely broken and riddled with corrupt unions whose sole interest is making green.
Defunding the police in the sense that their military-grade weaponry be recalled isn't a bad idea. However, the way it is phrased is absolutely awful, and will only serve as a conservative talking point that anarchy is what the people want.
It's too bad our police prefer filling out the paperwork on why they felt the need to open fire on unarmed individuals rather than deescalate the situation. If nurses can deal with violent drunks every Saturday night, then what excuse do the police exactly have when it comes to being supposedly threatened by "suspicious" individuals?
It all comes down to a toxic combination of American culture and poor training regimes. Resist the evil government they say, but praise the lunatics who enforce the laws they write, and remember to thank the troops who somehow protected your freedom by killing hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians! You can't make this shit up.
