I am very interested to see the results. Kudos to Minneapolis for testing some new approaches. Looks like they're using 911 call center data as a resource to decide how best to provide assistance to their citizens.

This should be interesting. Will protection now fall to the county, the state or federal?
Or does the council think that crime is a result of having no PD and without them crime will cease

I think they may have just sht where they drink

What happens to the home, auto, biz insurance rates when there are no police? Maybe the solmali gangs will protect everyone.

This cannot end well for Minneapolis.

Is the mayor going to puss out or come back with a firm, but kind reply without apologizing?

Hope they do disband the police, but they will not. Let BLACK LIVES MATTER take over policing the city. It would be like Lenin's Bolsheviks policing Moscow.

mayor is a dem so PO.

Even some of our resident liberals here are not on board.

What you will probably end up is a bunch of political hacks with no training and absolutely no authority to enforce the law, unless you want to get into some citizens arrest BS.

That’s my bet too. I bet he cries on tv....

How's Minneapolis going to function without fear of the cops murdering its citizens in broad daylight?

Based on the looting and carnage we’ve seen over the last two weeks, Section 8 certainly seems like it’ll fare pretty well short-term!

Police officially undermined. Let the quitting begin.

Best thing that could happen is 50% of the police force quits and the remaining refuse to serve the more dangerous communities. For Minneapolis that could be 3/4's of the city.

Please let Black Lives Matter take over policing the city. They already have extensive policing experience in Ferguson and Baltimore.

They deserve whatever they get.

I’d like to have a gun dealership in the Twin Cities.

Instead of actually holding police officers accountable for their actions and improving police training (which would require effort), they decide to completely disband the police department.

It's like cutting your leg off to change your socks. Seems like a completely overboard response.

Certainly not for those employed by the MPD.

There is a silver lining; at least the criminal class will thrive.

The citizens will be the ones who suffer. Not them
