Must be nice for them, to be all virtuous. They are rich, have large walls and private security. Completely out of touch with reality most of those people are. Many people in urban centers, particularly low income and older people want a police present as they don't feel safe with all of the crime. Crime only increases when there is less of a police presence. I think that has been fairly well documented.
Says the people who have security, can afford security, and can afford to jet out of the US to another country and live just fine on a moments notice.
And those non-wealthy who support this nonsense, well, who you calling if someone comes up and robs you, or does a home invasion, or steals your property, or simple races up and down the street?
"Black communities are living in persistent fear of being killed by state authorities like police, immigration agents or even white vigilantes who are emboldened by state actors."
Should we also defund our judges, attorneys, state legislators? These are the state authorities that actually make the law/policy and carry out "justice". Police are just following the law/policy dictated by other state authorities. So isnt it actually those people that are torturing and terrorizing black folks, just black folk, not white folk, or Latino folk, or Asian folk?
Hope one of these liberal cities actually does it to provide and excellent case study.
