Leftists shout about shifting money from police into education or healthcare to solve the same problems. Spending on policing is $0.1 trillion. Spending on education is $8.1 trillion and healthcare is $3.5 trillion. If you took 100% of police funding, you wouldn’t increase education and healthcare spending by even 1%. Defunding the police to fund education and healthcare is a lie.

Defunding the police is a way to remove one more barrier between the citizens and the hand of the shadow government. Once the police are out, then there would be no need for federal officers, then there would be no need for the National Guard. If all your AD troops are across the world theres nobody here to defend the American People.
I think people should have to work cattle for one single week. They will never look at politics the same ever again.
We definitely need to change police recruiting standards. Initial and ongoing physical requirements need to go back up. George Floyd was likely stronger than all of the responding officers combined.
Recruiting and probation periods should be screening out recruits that aren’t heads up, problem solvers, and model citizens. There are a ton of cops that are betas with a badge and gun. That’s a very bad when combined with being in poor physical shape. Sending a flamboyant soy boy or the class dork that everyone bullied to a meth trailer or ghetto crack house is going to turn out badly.
To fill jobs with these higher standards we need to not demonize police and ensure pay is attractive for the area. Sub-par pay guarantees sub-par talent. If you are willing to spend, then you can ask for higher standards.
