Total. Complete. Ignorance

I can’t believe there are actually politicians who take defunding or abolishing the police seriously. That has to be the stupidest thing I’ve ever heard of. When you throw out the baby’s bath water, you take the baby out first. Yes, there are a few “bad apples” in some police departments. That is no reason to get rid of the police completely. They are your protectors. The only reason the lawbreakers don’t “run all over you.” One of the stupidest things you can do is to get rid of an essential service without having something to effectively replace it. And the only effective replacement for the police is an armed force with the same powers under a different name. Which just gives a new body of people the same powers as the police have. Without that, society is doomed. And anybody smart enough to be elected to run the government needs to be smart. Those who actually want to get rid of the police do not meet that requirement and should not be in office. People who actively work to get rid of the police are either criminals or stupid politicians. Nobody with any degree of intelligence wants to get rid of the people who actively protect them from criminals and their ILLEGAL guns. (Just common sense)
