Alot of people here think the Left is serious about defunding the police.
Yeah, no, don't fall for this b.s. scam.
Yes, they will do a little defunding for now to keep the rabid BLM idiots at bay.
But they know what they are doing.
They are going to get the thugs in blue to stand down, while BLM and ANTIFA thugs continue their destruction.
This will start pissing off enough people on the right that the militias will start shooting people, when attacked.
Then the state will order the cops to arrest and disarm the militias, their friends in the MSM will frame the story of evil right wingers shooting innocent protesters and then the state will declare the militias as "hate groups"
Once the population is disarmed, then the state will begin enforcing law and order.
They don't want to defund the police, they want to replace the police. And in socialist utopia there is no separation of powers or protection of rights. The enforcers are also the legislators, and whatever freedom they allow you to have can be taken away at any time. We've already seen it happen in Chaz.
They don't need to replace the police.
The police will and already are being used against any right wing pede that wants to defend themselves.
Did we already forget who was arresting barbers for cutting hair?
Did we already forget who was arresting mothers for taking their children down to the park?
Who arrested a solitary paddle boarder?
They dont need to replace the cops.
They need the cops to enforce the law selectively.
And the cops have complied fully to the demands.
No cop union has told its members to stop heeding the commands of the governors or the mayors who have badmouthed the police.
Yeah, there are far too many people on board with totalitarian oppression. This is absolutely incompatible with the American way of life, so either they have to go or we're all going to be slaves.
