People don't recognize that "defund police" does not mean "eliminate police". It means reallocation of dollars to other resources better equipped to deal with issues police is often called upon to deal with. The homeless, mental health problems, drug addictions. The police are not best suited to handle those, other trained professionals are.
It is an idea worth exploring, and implementing in some manner.

They have explored it. It's called Los Angeles and San Francisco and it's been an absolute unequivocal failure. There are more homeless, mentally ill, and drug addicted people on the streets than ever before.

Seemed to have worked extremely well in Camden, NJ.
Normal people is Minneapolis should love this ... even the goofy Mayor of Minneapolis refused to agree with this crazy idea.

Absolutely everyone knows for a fact that President Trump is the deciding vote on the Minneapolis City Council.

Of course, but they live in a Rubber Bubble and critical thinking doesn’t exist in that Bubble.
9 members-a veto-proof majority — of the Minneapolis City Council pledged on Sunday to dismantle the city’s Police Department, promising to create a new system of public safety in a city where law enforcement has long been accused of racism. Saying that the city’s current policing system could not be reformed, the council members stood before hundreds of people gathered late in the day on a grassy hill, and signed a pledge to begin the process of taking apart the Police Department as it now exists. Whoa.
for graciously volunteering your own taxpayers as guinea pigs to live in a city with no law enforcement. Now the other cities can watch the result of prius driving social workers asking hardened criminals to please and thank you not to purse snatch and breakin and enter, nor gang rape women at night.
This is going to work out great! And I assume every cop is fired effective immediately?
Well, you can rely on Antifa to help you if the cops aren't around.
They may need your nursing help. Now why didn't you go to med school, again?
