It's a class issue more than anything else. We've been in a long term downtrend in violent crime and if that persists then disarming the police becomes a much more viable argument.

We need jobs and dignified jobs for all Americans and an emphasis on strong families. The biggest social determinant in Upward Mobility is having 2 parents in a household.

If there is a bounce back in the violent crime rate after police departments in cities are defunded then I'd expect gang membership to increase and be opposite of what we want to happen.
