In a time of such a deficit on common sense and logic, this gives me some hope that the silent majority is following the right path.

The main reason the voters objected was because they had no plan. "Let's replace it!" "With what?" "I don't know! But give the mayor and council 30 days to come up with something if it passes!!"

That honestly sounds like the people pushing this wanted it to fail, which wouldn't surprise me. If the public is calling for police reform, give them an option so crazy even the reformers go "No thanks".

In the end, this vote probably doesn’t amount to a whole lot. The police department won’t be replaced in name and the provision in the city charter requiring a minimum number of officers on the payroll will survive but the reforms in policing are coming regardless. Pilot programs in major urban areas sending non-police response teams to non-violent calls are showing early success. Change isn’t always a bad thing.

They need to keep a list of those who voted to replace them and refund them, give that list to all officers and 911 dispatch, so that when they call the police, they are ignored. That's literally the only way you will get to these worthless leftists.
