We can just remove the police from black neighborhoods entirely because that's what they seem to want, but even the majority of blacks know perfectly well that this would be a terrible idea.
Then majority of blacks need to speak up. If they don't speak up, then non-blacks have to assume defund the police is exactly what they want. At this point, ALL I know is that they want to defund the police and there is a systemic racism against black community. (this is the message they sent out.)
Honestly, all these can be resolved with Tax choice. In public choice theory, tax choice (sometimes called taxpayer sovereignty or earmarking) is the belief that individual taxpayers should have direct control over how their taxes are spent. How about letting black communities voice their opinion with their tax dollars?
At this point, I think either removing the police from black neighborhoods entirely, or using an all black police force is the only solution. If they protest in the middle of a global pandemic, you know they mean business. Something have to be done.
All blah blah being said, this country is in such a screwed up situation. We have to deal with this along with covid, so depressing!

You know we pay for the policing in the black neighborhoods right? The people in the hoods don’t pay taxes.
What do you do when someone doesn’t want to be arrested?
You either use the force required to take them to jail live, or let them run if they are not immediate in danger of harming others. You don't kill them.
Guess you must have missed the part where he turned around to aim the taser at the cop. Rayshard Brooks put himself in that situation and died for it. Does it suck he died? Yes. But no sympathy on my part.
Had he not resisted arrest, none of the other stuff that followed would have happened.

A taser is not a lethal weapon. We here this from police all the time. Their lives were not in danger, nor was anyone else's. They knew who he was, where he lived, an easy arrest later on.
It was not a capital offense what he did.
