Not to mention SROs. Maybe they’ll arm the teachers or, better yet, hire a bunch of twenty-something social workers fresh out of college to deal with active shooters should the need ever arise.

I honestly don't understand their goal in defunding. Maybe they think it will facilitate future change in policing? It's hard to imagine how defunding police in a major city would be an improvement for the citizens. Seems to me that a more moderate approach to police reform could have worked for them. I'll be interested to see how it turns out but I'm glad I'm not living there.

I'm really having a hard time connecting the dots here. OK, so a black guy gets killed by a white officer in another state over a thousand miles away...and the response is to cut back on homeland security and school resource officers? I'm not gettin' this.

As for the police chief, I'm disappointed she weasel mouthed her resignation letter. I wish she'd spelled it out with something like this:

"I'm leaving because I can't work for an outfit that defunds their police. I am the police. If you defund me, how can you expect me to stay and work under those conditions?"

You're starting to understand. This is about ushering marxism. Local police, hired locally are still the best option vs a federal gov police. You think these blm groups care about floyd. This is about changing a culture and society.

They just look for an excuse to agitate, you continue to agitate until changes are made in your favor.

Under that sort of thinking they ought to beef up the local police, not defund it. I'm trying to think like a Marxist and I'm still not getting it.

This appears reactionary to me. No thought behind it. Just a bone to appease the far left..."you want us to defund the police? OK, here you go"

You're using too much logic and thought. Liberalism/marxism is about emotions and feelings.
